[PATCH 01/11] staging/fwserial: Only reset port status for attached peers

[Peter Hurley]

When a port has been reserved in an attempt to connect to a peer
but that attempt does not succeed, releasing the port should not
reset the port line status. Although resetting is functionally
harmless, it can appear as if a remote peer dropped carrier to a
port it was not attached to (which can be confusing).

[PATCH 04/11] staging/fwserial: Create loop device the 'tty' way

[Peter Hurley]

Register a second tty driver to create loopback devices for
each firewire node. Note that the loopback devices are numbered
from 0; the tty->index is transformed when used to index the
port table.

Remove the hack that previously enabled this.

[PATCH 06/11] staging/fwserial: Factor unstable stats/debug/status info to debugfs

[Peter Hurley]

Add the following file hierarchy to debugfs:

  <debugfs>-+
            +- firewire_serial -+- <unit> -+- peers
                                |          +- stats
                                |
                                +- <unit> -+- peers
                                           +- stats

The 'peers' file (read-only) contains status and configuration
info for attached peers for the given fwserial unit.

The 'stats' file (read-only) contains statistics and data profiling
information for each tty port for the given fwserial unit.

[PATCH 10/11] staging/fwserial: Fix premature unthrottle

[Peter Hurley]

The unthrottle may restart the writer before the rx push
has a chance to start emptying the rx buffer, resulting in an
overflowed rx buffer and lost data.

Perform the actual device unthrottle with the rx push instead.

Hi Greg,

I can rebase these against your staging-next, if you'd prefer, but it
will make the -next merge non-trivial.

Your tty-next tree is carrying patches to this driver from patch series
  "TTY: switch flipping functions to tty_port"
which is already in -next.

Let me know what you'd like me to do.

Regards,
Peter Hurley

Ugh, that's a mess.

Can these wait until after 3.9-rc1 is out?  If so, things should get
synced up by then.  Otherwise I'll have to figure out how to handle the
merge properly...
