Here's the set of driver core patches for 3.19-rc1.
They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform
drivers. They touch a lot of files, but they are "simple" changes, just
removing a line in a structure.
Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes. There are
some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been acked by
the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs changes.
Everything has been in linux-next for a while.

The evh_bytechan, hvc_opal and hvc_vio drivers all open code the parsing
of the stdout node in the device tree. This patch simplifies the driver
by removing the duplicated functionality.

It allows for cleaning up on a considerable amount of places. They did
port_get, wakeup, kref_put. Now the only thing needed is to call
tty_port_tty_wakeup which does exactly that.
One exception is ifx6x60 where tty_wakeup was open-coded. We now call
tty_wakeup properly there.

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
to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it
anyway.

After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are
not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not
called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted
with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this
assumption.
To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with
the tty_port, we have to call tty_port_destroy at tear-down places.
This is mostly where the structure containing a tty_port is freed.
This patch does exactly that -- put tty_port_destroy at those places.

Currently we have no way to assign tty->port while performing tty
installation. There are two ways to provide the link tty_struct =>
tty_port. Either by calling tty_port_install from tty->ops->install or
tty_port_register_device called instead of tty_register_device when
the device is being set up after connected.
In this patch we modify most of the drivers to do the latter. When the
drivers use tty_register_device and we have tty_port already, we
switch to tty_port_register_device. So we have the tty_struct =>
tty_port link for free for those.

All num, magic and owner are set by alloc_tty_driver. No need to
re-set them on each allocation site.
pti driver sets something different to what it passes to
alloc_tty_driver. It is not a bug, since we don't use the lines
parameter in any way. Anyway this is fixed, and now we do the right
thing.

The ePAPR hypervisor byte channel console driver only supports one byte
channel as a console, and the byte channel handle is stored in a global
variable. It doesn't make any sense to pass that handle as a parameter
to the console functions, since these functions already have access to the
global variable.

The ePAPR hypervisor byte channel driver is supposed to work on all
ePAPR-compliant embedded PowerPC systems, but it had a reference to the MSR_GS
bit, which is available only on Book-E systems.
Also fix a couple integer-to-pointer typecast problems.

The ePAPR embedded hypervisor specification provides an API for "byte
channels", which are serial-like virtual devices for sending and receiving
streams of bytes. This driver provides Linux kernel support for byte
channels via three distinct interfaces:
1) An early-console (udbg) driver. This provides early console output
through a byte channel. The byte channel handle must be specified in a
Kconfig option.
2) A normal console driver. Output is sent to the byte channel designated
for stdout in the device tree. The console driver is for handling kernel
printk calls.
3) A tty driver, which is used to handle user-space input and output. The
byte channel used for the console is designated as the default tty.
