The receive_buf tty-port callback should return the number of bytes
accepted and must specifically never return a negative errno (or a value
larger than the buffer size) to the tty layer.
A serdev driver not providing a receive_buf callback would currently
cause the flush_to_ldisc() worker to spin in a tight loop when the tty
buffer pointers are incremented with -EINVAL (-22) after data has been
received.
A serdev driver occasionally returning a negative errno (or a too large
byte count) could cause information leaks or crashes when accessing
memory outside the tty buffers in consecutive callbacks.

Now that the SPDX tag is in all tty files, that identifies the license
in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text wording
can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.
This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.
No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.
Update the drivers/tty files files with the correct SPDX license
identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of
the full boiler plate text.
This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

Serdev currently only supports a single slave device, but the required
sanity checks to prevent further registration attempts were missing.
If a serial-port node has two child nodes with compatible properties,
the OF code would try to register two slave devices using the same id
and name. Driver core will not allow this (and there will be loud
complaints), but the controller's slave pointer would already have been
set to address of the soon to be deallocated second struct
serdev_device. As the first slave device remains registered, this can
lead to later use-after-free issues when the slave callbacks are
accessed.
Note that while the serdev registration helpers are exported, they are
typically only called by serdev core. Any other (out-of-tree) callers
must serialise registration and deregistration themselves.

Add a new interface for registering a serdev controller and clients, and
a helper function to deregister serdev devices (or a tty device) that
were previously registered using the new interface.
Once every driver currently using the tty_port_register_device() helpers
have been vetted and converted to use the new serdev registration
interface (at least for deregistration), we can move serdev registration
to the current helpers and get rid of the serdev-specific functions.

To support that, also add serdev_device_write_wakeup().
Drivers wanting to use full extent of serdev_device_write
functionality are expected to provide serdev_device_write_wakeup() as
a sole handler of .write_wakeup event or call it as a part of driver's
custom .write_wakeup code.
Because serdev_device_write() subroutine is a superset of
serdev_device_write_buf() the patch re-impelements latter is terms of
the former. For drivers wanting to just use serdev_device_write_buf()
.write_wakeup handler is optional.

The serdev bus is designed for devices such as Bluetooth, WiFi, GPS
and NFC connected to UARTs on host processors. Tradionally these have
been handled with tty line disciplines, rfkill, and userspace glue such
as hciattach. This approach has many drawbacks since it doesn't fit
into the Linux driver model. Handling of sideband signals, power control
and firmware loading are the main issues.
This creates a serdev bus with controllers (i.e. host serial ports) and
attached devices. Typically, these are point to point connections, but
some devices have muxing protocols or a h/w mux is conceivable. Any
muxing is not yet supported with the serdev bus.
