tty: cumulate and document tty_struct::flow* members
Group the flow flags under a single struct called flow. The new struct contains 'stopped' and 'tco_stopped' bools which used to be bits in a bitfield. The struct also contains the lock protecting them to potentially share the same cache line. Note that commit c545b66c6922b (tty: Serialize tcflow() with other tty flow control changes) added a padding to the original bitfield. It was for the bitfield to occupy a whole 64b word to avoid interferring stores on Alpha (cannot we evaporate this arch with weird implications to C code yet?). But it doesn't work as expected as the padding (tty_struct::unused) is aligned to a 8B boundary too and occupies some bytes from the next word. So make it reliable by: 1) setting __aligned of the struct -- that aligns the start, and 2) making 'unsigned long unused[0]' as the last member of the struct -- pads the end. This is also the perfect time to start the documentation of tty_struct where all this lives. So we start by documenting what these bools actually serve for. And why we do all the alignment dances. Only the few up-to-date information from the Theodore's comment made it into this new Kerneldoc comment. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Cc: "David S.
