The option allows you to remove TTY and compile without errors. This
saves space on systems that won't support TTY interfaces anyway.
bloat-o-meter output is below.

The bulk of this patch consists of Kconfig changes adding "depends on
TTY" to various serial devices and similar drivers that require the TTY
layer.  Ideally, these dependencies would occur on a common intermediate
symbol such as SERIO, but most drivers "select SERIO" rather than
"depends on SERIO", and "select" does not respect dependencies.

bloat-o-meter output comparing our previous minimal to new minimal by
removing TTY.  The list is filtered to not show removed entries with awk
'$3 != "-"' as the list was very long.

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many
call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get in those paths.

Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed:
tty_flip_buffer_push.

IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get
at all yet.

Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h

For that purpose we have to temporarily introduce a second tty back
pointer into tty_port. It is because serial layer, and maybe others,
still do not use tty_port_tty_set/get. So that we cannot set the
tty_port->tty to NULL at will now.

Yes, the fix would be to convert whole serial layer and all its users
to tty_port_tty_set/get. However we are in the process of removing the
need of tty in most of the call sites, so this would lead to a
duplicated work.

Instead we have now tty_port->itty (internal tty) which will be used
only in flush_to_ldisc. For that one it is ensured that itty is valid
wherever the work is run. IOW, the work is synchronously cancelled
before we set itty to NULL and also before hangup is processed.

After we need only tty_port and not tty_struct in most code, this
shall be changed to tty_port_tty_set/get and itty removed completely.

This reverts the tty layer change to use per-tty locking, because it's

there are several smaller commits that built upon it, they also get
reverted here. The list of reverted commits is:

  fde86d31 - tty: add lockdep annotations
  8f6576ad - tty: fix ldisc lock inversion trace
  d3ca8b64 - pty: Fix lock inversion
  b1d679af - tty: drop the pty lock during hangup
  abcefe5f - tty/amiserial: Add missing argument for tty_unlock()
  fd11b42e - cris: fix missing tty arg in wait_event_interruptible_tty call
  d29f3ef3 - tty_lock: Localise the lock

After adding devpts multiple-insrances sysctl kernel.pty.max limit pty count for
each devpts instance independently, while kernel.pty.nr shows total pty count.

This patch restores sysctl kernel.pty.max as global limit (4096 by default),
adds pty reseve for main devpts (mounted without "newinstance" argument),
and new sysctl to tune it: kernel.pty.reserve (1024 by default)

Also it adds devpts mount option "max=%d" to limit pty count for each devpts
instance independently. (by default NR_UNIX98_PTY_MAX == 2^20)

Thus devpts instances in containers cannot eat up all available pty even if we didn't
set any limits, while with "max" argument we can adjust limits more precisely.

Plus, now open("/dev/ptmx") return -ENOSPC in case lack of pty indexes,
this is more informative than -EIO.

If tty_add_file fails at the point it is now, we have to revert all
the changes we did to the tty. It means either decrease all refcounts
if this was a tty reopen or delete the tty if it was newly allocated.

There was a try to fix this in v3.0-rc2 using tty_release in 0259894c
(TTY: fix fail path in tty_open). But instead it introduced a NULL
dereference. It's because tty_release dereferences
filp->private_data, but that one is set even in our tty_add_file. And
when tty_add_file fails, it's still NULL/garbage. Hence tty_release
cannot be called there.

To circumvent the original leak (and the current NULL deref) we split
tty_add_file into two functions, making the latter non-failing. In
that case we may do the former early in open, where handling failures
is easy. The latter stays as it is now. So there is no change in
functionality.

The original bug (leak) was introduced by f573bd17 (tty: Remove
__GFP_NOFAIL from tty_add_file()). Thanks Dan for reporting this.

Later, we may split tty_release into more functions and call only some
of them in this fail path instead. (If at all possible.)

tty_operations->remove is normally called like:
queue_release_one_tty
 ->tty_shutdown
   ->tty_driver_remove_tty
     ->tty_operations->remove

However tty_shutdown() is called from queue_release_one_tty() only if
tty_operations->shutdown is NULL. But for pty, it is not.
pty_unix98_shutdown() is used there as ->shutdown.

So tty_operations->remove of pty (i.e. pty_unix98_remove()) is never
called. This results in invalid pty_count. I.e. what can be seen in
/proc/sys/kernel/pty/nr.

I see this was already reported at:
  https://lkml.org/lkml/2009/11/5/370
But it was not fixed since then.

This patch is kind of a hackish way. The problem lies in ->install. We
allocate there another tty (so-called tty->link). So ->install is
called once, but ->remove twice, for both tty and tty->link. The fix
here is to count both tty and tty->link and divide the count by 2 for
user.

And to have ->remove called, let's make tty_driver_remove_tty() global
and call that from pty_unix98_shutdown() (tty_operations->shutdown).

While at it, let's document that when ->shutdown is defined,
tty_shutdown() is not called.

Since commit (4564f9e5: consolidate line discipline number definitions)
the patch moved all line discipline number from a per-architecture termios.h
to a shared one: tty.h. However, prior to this consolidation work, the
line discipline numbers were outside of an ifdef __KERNEL__/endif block
so these numbers used to be exported to user-space.

Since such numbers are kernel ABI anyway, and tty.h is already included
for user- space header processing, just move these relevant defines
outside of the ifdef __KERNEL__/endif block in include/linux/tty.h.
