Remove multi-urb write from the generic driver and simplify the
prepare_write_buffer prototype:
int (*prepare_write_buffer)(struct usb_serial_port *port,
void *dest, size_t size);
The default implementation simply fills dest with data from port write
fifo but drivers can override it if they need to process the outgoing
data (e.g. add headers).
Turn ftdi_sio into a generic fifo-based driver, which lowers CPU usage
significantly for small writes while retaining maximum throughput.

Reimplement fifo-based writes in the generic driver using a multiple
pre-allocated urb scheme.
In contrast to multi-urb writes, no allocations (of urbs or buffers) are
made during run-time and there is less pressure on the host stack
queues as currently only two urbs are used (implementation is generic
and can handle more than two urbs as well, though).
Initial tests using ftdi_sio show that the implementation achieves the
same (maximum) throughput at high baudrates as multi-urb writes. The CPU
usage is much lower than for multi-urb writes for small write requests
and only slightly higher for large (e.g. 2k) requests (due to extra copy
via fifo?).
Also outperforms multi-urb writes for small write requests on an
embedded arm-9 system, where multi-urb writes are CPU-bound at high
baudrates (perf reveals that a lot of time is spent in the host stack
enqueue function -- could perhaps be a bug as well).
Keeping the original write_urb, buffer and flag for now as there are
other drivers depending on them.

Generalise write buffer preparation.
This allows for drivers to manipulate (e.g. add headers) to bulk out
data before it is sent.
This adds a new function pointer to usb_serial_driver:
int (*prepare_write_buffer)(struct usb_serial_port *port,
void **dest, size_t size, const void *src, size_t count);
The function is generic and can be used with either kfifo-based or
multi-urb writes:
If *dest is NULL the implementation should allocate dest.
If src is NULL the implementation should use the port write fifo.
If not set, a generic implementation is used which simply uses memcpy or
kfifo_out.

When do_output_char() attempts to write a carriage return/line feed sequence,
it first checks to see how much buffer room is available. If there are at least
two characters free, it will write the carriage return/line feed with two calls
to tty_put_char(). It calls the tty_operation functions write() for devices that
don't support the tty_operations function put_char(). If the USB generic serial
device's write URB is not in use, it will return the buffer size when asked how
much room is available. The write() of the carriage return will cause it to mark
the write URB busy, so the subsequent write() of the line feed will be ignored.
This patch uses the kfifo infrastructure to implement a write FIFO that
accurately returns the amount of space available in the buffer.

The only time a sysrq should get processed is if the attached device
is a console. This is intended to protect sysrq execution on a host
connected with a terminal program.
Here is the problem scenario:
host A <-- rs232 link --> host B
Host A is using mincom and a usb pl2303 device to connect to host b
which is a linux system with a usb pl2303 device acting as the serial
console. When host B is rebooted the pl2303 emits random junk
characters on reset. These character sequences contain serial break
signals most of the time and when translated to a sysrq have caused
host A to get random processes killed, reboots or power down.
It is true that in this setup with this patch host B might still have
the same problem as host A if you reboot host A. In most cases host A
is a development host which seldom gets rebooted, and you could turn
off sysrq temporarily on host B if you need to reboot host A.

The usb_debug driver was modified to implement serial break handling
by using a "magic" data packet comprised of the sequence:
0x00 0xff 0x01 0xfe 0x00 0xfe 0x01 0xff
When the tty layer requests a serial break the usb_debug driver sends
the magic packet. On the receiving side the magic packet is thrown
away or a sysrq is activated depending on what kernel .config options
have been set.
The generic serial driver was modified as well as the usb serial
headers to generically implement sysrq processing in the same way the
non usb uart based drivers implement the sysrq handling. This will
allow other usb serial devices to implement sysrq handling as desired.
The new usb serial functions are named similarly and implemented
similarly to the uart functions as follows:
usb_serial_handle_break <-> uart_handle_break
usb_serial_handle_sysrq_char <-> uart_handle_sysrq_char

The usb_debug driver, when used as the console, will always fail to
insert the carriage return and new line sequence as well as randomly
drop console output. This is a result of only having the single
write_urb and that the tty layer will have a lock that prevents the
processing of the back to back urb requests.
The solution is to allow more than one urb to be outstanding and have
a slightly deeper transmit queue. The idea and some code is borrowed
from the ftdi_sio usb driver.
The generic usb serial driver was modified so as to allow the classic
method of 1 write urb, or a multi write urb scheme with N allowed
outstanding urbs where N is controlled by max_in_flight_urbs. When
max_in_flight_urbs in a "struct usb_serial_driver" is non zero the
multi write urb scheme will be used.
The size of 4000 was selected for the usb_debug driver so that the
driver lowers possibility of losing the queued console messages during
the kernel startup.

USB serial likes to use port->tty back pointers for the real work it does and
to do so without any actual locking. Unfortunately when you consider hangup
events, hangup/parallel reopen or even worse hangup followed by parallel close
events the tty->port and port->tty pointers are not guaranteed to be the same
as port->tty is the active tty while tty->port is the port the tty may or
may not still be attached to.
So rework the entire API to pass the tty struct. For console cases we need
to pass both for now. This shows up multiple drivers that immediately crash
with USB console some of which have been fixed in the process.
