[PATCH 0/3] tty slave device support - version 3.

Hi again,
here is version 3 of support for tty-slaves.

This version introduces a new bus-type for tty-slaves, and causes
a tty-slave device to appear in /sys/devices between the uart and the
tty.
It effectively intercepts and calls from the tty to the uart (i.e. any
tty_operations) and applies extra functionality at that point.

Currently the only driver intercepts open and close.
It powers on the device on open, and powers off at last-close.

Power can be controlled by a regulator or by toggling a GPIO.

I think I've incorporated most of the feed back I received from
previous versions, but if I missed something - I apologize. If
this approach is structurally acceptable then I can fix up all the
smaller issues.

Thanks for your review,
NeilBrown

TTY: add support for tty_slave devices.
tty/slaves: add a driver to power on/off UART attached devices.
