All usb_serial drivers return 0 in their remove callbacks and driver
core ignores the value returned by usb_serial_device_remove(). So change
the remove callback to return void and return 0 unconditionally in
usb_serial_device_remove().

This moves the allocation of minor device numbers from a static array to
be dynamic, using the idr interface. This means that you could
potentially get "gaps" in a minor number range for a single USB serial
device with multiple ports, but all should still work properly.
We remove the 'minor' field from the usb_serial structure, as it no
longer makes any sense for it (use the field in the usb_serial_port
structure if you really want to know this number), and take the fact
that we were overloading a number in this field to determine if we had
initialized the minor numbers or not, and just use a flag variable
instead.
Note, we still have the limitation of 255 USB to serial devices in the
system, as that is all we are registering with the TTY layer at this
point in time.

The usb_serial_port structure had the number field, which was the minor
number for the port, which almost no one really cared about. They
really wanted the number of the port within the device, which you had to
subtract from the minor of the parent usb_serial_device structure. To
clean this up, provide the real minor number of the port, and the number
of the port within the serial device separately, as these numbers might
not be related in the future.
Bonus is that this cleans up a lot of logic in the drivers, and saves
lines overall.

Add generic TIOCMIWAIT implementation which correctly handles hangup,
USB-device disconnect, does not rely on the deprecated sleep_on
functions and hence does not suffer from the races currently affecting
several usb-serial drivers.
This makes it much easier to add TIOCMIWAIT support to subdrivers as the
tricky details related to hangup and disconnect (e.g. atomicity, that
the private port data may have been freed when woken up, and waking up
processes at disconnect) have been handled once and for all.
To add support to a subdriver, simply set the tiocmiwait-port-operation
field, update the port icount fields and wake up any process sleeping on
the tty-port modem-status-change wait queue on changes.
Note that the tty-port initialised flag can be used to detect
disconnected as the port will be hung up as part of disconnect (and
cannot be reactivated due to the disconnected flag). However, as the
tty-port implementation currently wakes up processes before calling port
shutdown, the tty-hupping flag must also be checked to detect hangup for
now.

This patch (as1536) fixes a bug in the USB serial core. Unloading and
reloading a serial driver while a serial device is plugged in causes
errors because of the code in usb_serial_disconnect() that tries to
make sure the port_remove method is called. With the new order of
driver registration introduced in the 3.4 kernel, this is definitely
not the right thing to do (if indeed it ever was).
The patch removes that whole section code, along with the mechanism
for keeping track of each port's registration state, which is no
longer needed. The driver core can handle all that stuff for us.
Note: This has been tested only with one or two USB serial drivers.
In theory, other drivers might still run into trouble. But if they
do, it will be the fault of the drivers, not of this patch -- that is,
the drivers will need to be fixed.

This patch (as1522) adds two new routines to the usb-serial core, for
registering and unregistering serial drivers. Instead of registering
the usb_driver and usb_serial_drivers separately, with error checking
for each one, the drivers can all be registered and unregistered by a
single function call. This reduces duplicated code.
More importantly, the new core routines change the order in which the
drivers are registered. Currently the usb-serial drivers are all
registered first and the usb_driver is done last, which leaves a
window for problems. A udev script may quickly add a new dynamic-ID
for a usb-serial driver, causing the corresponding usb_driver to be
probed. If the usb_driver hasn't been registered yet then an oops
will occur.
The new routine prevents such problems by registering the usb_driver
first. To insure that it gets probed properly for already-attached
serial devices, we call driver_attach() after all the usb-serial
drivers have been registered.
Along with adding the new routines, the patch modifies the "generic"
serial driver to use them. Further patches will similarly modify all
the other in-tree USB serial drivers.
