Merge tag 'tty-3.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/tty into next

Pull tty/serial driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big tty / serial driver pull request for 3.16-rc1.

  A variety of different serial driver fixes and updates and additions,
  nothing huge, and no real major core tty changes at all.

  All have been in linux-next for a while"

+- reg: I2C address of the SC16IS7xx device.
+- interrupt-parent: The phandle for the interrupt controller that
+  services interrupts for this IC.
+- interrupts: Should contain the UART interrupt
+- clocks: Reference to the IC source clock.

+----------------------------

+
+mctrl_gpio_init(dev, idx):
+	This will get the {cts,rts,...}-gpios from device tree if they are
+	present and request them, set direction etc, and return an
+	allocated structure. devm_* functions are used, so there's no need
+	to call mctrl_gpio_free().
+
+mctrl_gpio_free(dev, gpios):
+	This will free the requested gpios in mctrl_gpio_init().
+	As devm_* function are used, there's generally no need to call
+	this function.
+
+mctrl_gpio_to_gpiod(gpios, gidx)
+	This returns the gpio structure associated to the modem line index.
+
+mctrl_gpio_set(gpios, mctrl):
+	This will sets the gpios according to the mctrl state.
+
+mctrl_gpio_get(gpios, mctrl):
+	This will update mctrl with the gpios values.
