Merge tag 'tty-4.20-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty

Pull tty/serial updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big tty and serial pull request for 4.20-rc1

  Lots of little things here, including a merge from the SPI tree in
  order to keep things simpler for everyone to sync around for one
  platform.

  Major stuff is:

   - tty buffer clearing after use

   - atmel_serial fixes and additions

   - xilinx uart driver updates

  and of course, lots of tiny fixes and additions to individual serial
  drivers.

  All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues for a
  while"
