I've changed some small things to the tty layer (see my other 3 RFC
patches I've send).
Performance increased with my loopback stress test:
- Old situation: average read call last for 50us, with peaks up to 230 us
- New situation: average read call still 50us, peak up to 60 us
- Write was stable in both situations: average of 90 us, peak up to 100 us

Only the very first read & write took extra time (128 us for read, 143
for write)
I'm still investigating that...

Feedback is very appreciated.

Regards,
Ivo Sieben
