Pull tty/serial driver updates from Greg KH: "Here's the big tty/serial driver patchset for 3.18-rc1. Lots of little things in here, some good work from Peter Hurley on the tty core, and in lots of drivers. There are also lots of other driver updates in here as well, full details in the changelogs.
