Merge tag 'tty-3.5-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty

Pull TTY updates from Greg Kroah-Hartman:
 "Here's the big TTY/serial driver pull request for the 3.5-rc1 merge
  window.

  Nothing major in here, just lots of incremental changes from Alan and
  Jiri reworking some tty core things to behave better and to get a more
  solid grasp on some of the nasty tty locking issues.

  There are a few tty and serial driver updates in here as well.

  All of this has been in the linux-next releases for a while with no
  problems.

  Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>"
