tty_buffer: get rid of 'seen_tail' logic in flush_to_ldisc The flush_to_ldisc() work entry has special logic to notice when it has seen the original tail of the data queue, and it avoids continuing the flush if it sees that _original_ tail rather than the current tail. This logic can trigger in case somebody is constantly adding new data to the tty while the flushing is active - and the intent is to avoid excessive CPU usage while flushing the tty, especially as we used to do this from a softirq context which made it non-preemptible. However, since we no longer re-arm the work-queue from within itself (because that causes other trouble: see commit a5660b41af6a "tty: fix endless work loop when the buffer fills up"), this just leads to possible hung tty's (most easily seen in SMP and with a test-program that floods a pty with data - nobody seems to have reported this for any real-life situation yet). And since the workqueue isn't done from timers and softirq's any more, it's doubtful whether the CPU useage issue is really relevant any more. So just remove the logic entirely, and see if anybody ever notices. Alternatively, we might want to re-introduce the "re-arm the work" for just this case, but then we'd have to re-introduce the delayed work model or some explicit timer, which really doesn't seem worth it for this.

Revert "tty: make receive_buf() return the amout of bytes received" This reverts commit b1c43f82c5aa265442f82dba31ce985ebb7aa71c. It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues. It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless work loop when the buffer fills up"). It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf() function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code, and didn't actually check for the error in the caller. And it didn't actually work at all. BenH bisected down odd tty behavior to it: "It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X server for me, possibly related to PTYs. For example, cat'ing a large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace data in the quoted bits further down). ... Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer process that could have emptied the PTY." which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af6a.
