Fix up trivial conflicts, mostly just due to the TTY config option
clashing with the EXPERIMENTAL removal.
The PPS (Pulse-Per-Second) line discipline has developed a number of
unhealthy attachments to core tty data and functions, ultimately leading
to its breakage.
The previous patches fixed the crashing. This one reduces coupling further
by eliminating the timestamp parameter from the dcd_change ldisc method.
This reduces header file linkage and makes the extension more generic,
and the timestamp read is delayed only slightly, from just before the
ldisc->ops->dcd_change method call to just after.

softsynth_read() reads a character at a time from the init string;
when it finds the null terminator it sets the initialized flag but
then repeats the last character.
Additionally, if the read() buffer is not big enough for the init
string, the next read() will start reading from the beginning again.
So the caller may never progress to reading anything else.
Replace the simple initialized flag with the current position in
the init string, carried over between calls. Switch to reading
real data once this reaches the null terminator.
(This assumes that the length of the init string can't change, which
seems to be the case. Really, the string and position belong together
in a per-file private struct.)

This structure might have made sense many years ago, but at this
point it is only used in one specific driver, and referenced in
stale comments elsewhere. Rather than change the sunsu.c driver,
simply move the struct to be within the exclusive domain of that
driver, so it won't get inadvertently picked up and used by other
serial drivers going forward. The comments referencing the now
driver specific struct are updated accordingly.
Note that 8250.c has a struct that is similar in usage, with the
name serial8250_config; but is 100% independent and untouched here.

Speech synthesis beginners need a low speech rate, and trained people
want a high speech rate. A medium speech rate is thus actually not a
good default for neither. Since trained people will typically know how
to change the rate, better default for a low speech rate, which
beginners can grasp and learn how to increase it afterwards

There define an array of speed, port base and so on needed for

in serialP.h.

Keyboard struct lifetime is easy, but the locking is not and is completely
ignored by the existing code. Tackle this one head on
- Make the kbd_table private so we can run down all direct users
- Hoick the relevant ioctl handlers into the keyboard layer
- Lock them with the keyboard lock so they don't change mid keypress
- Add helpers for things like console stop/start so we isolate the poking
around properly
- Tweak the braille console so it still builds
There are a couple of FIXME locking cases left for ioctls that are so hideous
they should be addressed in a later patch. After this patch the kbd_table is
private and all the keyboard jiggery pokery is in one place.
This update fixes speakup and also a memory leak in the original.

We still leaked many resources when Speakup failed to initialize.
Examples of leaked resources include:
/dev/synth, keyboard or VT notifiers, and heap-allocated st_spk_t
structs.
This is fixed.
* We now use PTR_ERR to detect kthread_create failure
(thank you Dan Carpenter).
* The loop which frees members of the speakup_console array now iterates
over the whole array, not stopping at the first NULL value. Fixes
a possible memory leak. Safe because kfree(NULL) is a no-op.
* The order of some initializations was changed. The safe ones, which
will never fail, are performed first.

__get_cpu_var() can be replaced with this_cpu_read and will then use a single
read instruction with implied address calculation to access the correct per cpu
instance.
However, the address of a per cpu variable passed to __this_cpu_read() cannot be
determed (since its an implied address conversion through segment prefixes).
Therefore apply this only to uses of __get_cpu_var where the addres of the
variable is not used.
V3->V4:
- Move one instance of this_cpu_inc_return to a later patch
so that this one can go in without percpu infrastructrure
changes.
