[PATCH 3/3] RFC: Solved unnecessary schedule latency in the TTY layer (3/3)

[Ivo Sieben <meltedpianoman@gmail.com>]

Solved unnecessary schedule latency in the TTY layer when used in
realtime context:
The global wait_queue that is used for line discipline idle handling is
moved to a separate wait_queue for each line instance. This prevents
unnecessary blocking on one line, because of idle handling on another
line.

Note: In a PREEMPT_RT system "normal" spin locks behave like mutexes and
no interrupts (and therefor no scheduling) is disabled.
