Johan Hovold 93857edd98 tty: reset termios state on device registration
Free any saved termios data when registering a tty device so that the
termios state is reset when reusing a minor number.

This is useful for hot-pluggable buses such as USB where it does not
make much sense to reuse saved termios data from an unrelated device
when a new device is later plugged in.

This specifically avoids a situation where the new device does not have
the carrier-detect signal wired, but the saved termios state has CLOCAL
cleared, effectively preventing the port from being opened in blocking
mode as noted by Jan Kundrát <jan.kundrat@cesnet.cz>.

Note that clearing the saved data at deregistration would not work as
the device could still be open.

Also note that the termios data is not reset for drivers with
TTY_DRIVER_DYNAMIC_ALLOC set (e.g. legacy pty) as their character device
is registered at driver registration and could theoretically already
have been opened (and pty termios state is never saved anyway).

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
