TTY/Serial patches for 4.9-rc1

Here is the big TTY and Serial patch set for 4.9-rc1.
 
 It also includes some drivers/dma/ changes, as those were needed by some
 serial drivers, and they were all acked by the DMA maintainer.  Also in
 here is the long-suffering ACPI SPCR patchset, which was passed around
 from maintainer to maintainer like a hot-potato.  Seems I was the
 sucker^Wlucky one.  All of those patches have been acked by the various
 subsystem maintainers as well.
 
 All of this has been in linux-next with no reported issues.
