[ Upstream commit 6d71c62b13c33ea858ab298fe20beaec5736edc7 ]

To prepare serdev driver to migrate away from struct device_driver::shutdown
(and then eventually remove that callback) create a serdev driver shutdown
callback and migration code to keep the existing behaviour. Note this
introduces a warning for each driver at register time that isn't converted
yet to that callback.

[ Upstream commit 88cddfb7bf23b06876da6c3e9f296e666d0f6332 ]

Now that the driver core can properly handle constant struct bus_type,
move the serdev_bus_type variable to be a constant structure as well,
placing it into read-only memory which can not be modified at runtime.

<title>tty: make counts in tty_port_client_operations hooks size_t</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0468a8071d7cfb0f5bc02b0888cec4525551299f</id>
<content type='text'>
The counts in tty_port_client_operations hooks' are currently
represented by all 'int', 'unsigned int', and 'size_t'. Unify them all
to unsigned 'size_t' for clarity. Note that size_t is used already in
tty_buffer.c. So, eventually, it is spread for counts everywhere and
this is the beginning.

So the two changes namely:
* ::receive_buf() is called from tty_ldisc_receive_buf(). And that
  expects values "&gt;= 0" from ::receive_buf(), so switch its rettype to
  size_t is fine. tty_ldisc_receive_buf() types will be changed
  separately.
* ::lookahead_buf()'s count comes from lookahead_bufs() and is already
  'unsigned int'.

The parameters are already unsigned chars. So make them explicitly u8s,
as the rest is going to be unified to u8 eventually too.

<content type='text'>
Adds serdev_device_break_ctl() and an implementation for ttyport.
This function simply calls the break_ctl in tty layer, which can
assert a break signal over UART-TX line, if the tty and the
underlying platform and UART peripheral supports this operation.

<content type='text'>
This replaces all instances of ENOTSUPP with EOPNOTSUPP since ENOTSUPP
is not a standard error code. This will help maintain consistency in
error codes when new serdev API's are added.

The uevent() callback in struct device_type should not be modifying the
device that is passed into it, so mark it as a const * and propagate the
function signature changes out into all relevant subsystems that use
this callback.

<title>serdev: Do not instantiate serdevs on boards with known bogus DSDT entries</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0890186a965868fa464582d5610c74eeff252c93</id>
<content type='text'>
x86 ACPI devices which ship with only Android as their factory image use
older kernels which do not yet support ACPI serdev enumeration, as such
the serdev information in their ACPI tables is not reliable.

For example on the Asus ME176C tablet the serdev describing the Bluetooth
HCI points to the serdev_controller connected to the GPS and the other way
around.

Use the new acpi_quirk_skip_serdev_enumeration() helper to identify
known boards with this issue and then either abort adding the serdev
controller (creating a tty cdev instead) or only create the controller
leaving the instantation of the serdev itself up to platform code.

In the case where only the serdev controller is created the necessary
serdevs will instead be instantiated by the
drivers/platform/x86/x86-android-tablets.c kernel module.
