Start by running it through the CodingStyle scripts as I see a //

Needs to be using krefs and checking the tty is not NULL
(tty_port_tty_get)

Minor item - HUPCL shouldn't get cleared - its a request for hangup
behaviour not a port feature.

If you can do CS8 without parity you can do CS7 with parity.

This seems broken. Lots of the iflgs are user requests and stack
