[PATCH]tty: Incorrect use tty_ldisc_flush() in TTY drivers.

Sorry. Correct patch format.

Related bug 'tty: fix "IRQ45: nobody cared"'
Related commit 7b292b4bf9a9d6098440d85616d6ca4c608b8304

  Unfortunately, some drivers indirectly call ldisc's flush_buffer() function 
in own callback function close(). In particularly, by the use of tty_ldisc_flush(),
before TTY LAYER calls ldisc's flush_buffer() in the right moment.

1. It disturb the logic of work ldisc's layer.
2. It is simple overhead because we call ldisc's flush_buffer() at least two times.

Please, tell me what do you think about this? Can I make the adjustment for other drivers?

[PATCH]tty: Incorrect use tty_ldisc_flush() in TTY drivers.

[Ilya Zykov]

This patch correct tty serial drivers.

Unfortunately, many drivers indirectly call ldisc's flush_buffer() function 
in own callback function close(). Рarticularly, by the use of tty_ldisc_flush(),
before TTY LAYER calls ldisc's flush_buffer() in the right moment.

1. It disturb the logic of work ldisc's layer.
2. It is simple overhead because we call ldisc's flush_buffer() at least two times.
