**This patchset requires 'Halve tty buffer memory consumption' patchset **

Requires it to build or just work properly?

I'm trying to figure out what tree to take this in, (tty-next or
staging-next).

To build.

The 'Halve tty buffer memory consumption' patchset exports new
methods that allow the driver to configure the maximum memory
consumption by the tty buffers.

This fwserial patchset uses that new interface to rely on tty
buffers to provide adequate rx buffering, rather than add'l rx
buffering being done by the driver.

By halving the buffer memory consumption, I don't feel so
guilty about doubling the limit :)
