At present this console is optionally registered by NULL checking
arch_kgdb_ops.enable_nmi. In practice this requires the architecture
dependant code to implement some kind of control (e.g. module arguments)
to enable/disable this feature.
The kernel already provides us the perfectly adequate console= argument
to enable/disable consoles. Let's use that instead!

At present it is not possible to boot with the ttyNMI0 console treating
character input normally, instead character input triggers a prompt
telling the user how to trigger the knock detector and enter the
debugger. To use the console normally requires that kdb be entered and
the nmi_console command be used to enable the console (or if only kgdb
is present then gdb must directly manipulate the value of
kgdb_nmi_tty_enabled).
This patch automates the management of kgdb_nmi_tty_enabled by keeping
track of the number of file handles that are open for reading and using
that to determine how to tty should operate.
The approach means that:
1. Behaviour before init starts is unchanged.
2. If the userspace runs a getty or some other interactive process on
/dev/console (or explicitly on /dev/ttyNMI0) the tty will treat
character input like any other tty.
3. If the userspace doesn't use /dev/console or if it uses /dev/console
only to log messages (O_WRONLY) then the user prompt is retained.

kgdb_nmi_tty_enabled is used for two unrelated purposes, namely to
suppress normal TTY input handling and to suppress console output
(although it has no effect at all on TTY output). A much better way to
handle muting the console is to not have to mute it in the first place!
That's what this patch does.

kgdb_nmi uses tasklets on the assumption they will not be scheduled
until the next timer tick. This assumption is invalid and can lead to
live lock, continually servicing the kgdb_nmi tasklet. This is fixed
by using the timer API instead.

This corrects a crash in kgdb_nmi_tty_shutdown() which occurs when
the function is called with port->tty set to NULL.
All conversions between struct tty_port and struct kgdb_nmi_tty_priv
have been switched to direct calls to container_of() to improve code
clarity and consistancy.

None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
and hence don't need to include <linux/init.h>. Most are just a
left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
code getting copied from one driver to the next.

There's no reason kgdb.h itself needs to include the 8250 serial port
header file. So push it down to the _very_ limited number of individual
drivers that need the values in that file, and fix up the places where
people really wanted serial_core.h and platform_device.h.

Now, we start converting tty buffer functions to actually use
tty_port. This will allow us to get rid of the need of tty in many
call sites. Only tty_port will needed and hence no more
tty_port_tty_get in those paths.
Now, the one where most of tty_port_tty_get gets removed:
tty_flip_buffer_push.
IOW we also closed all the races in drivers not using tty_port_tty_get
at all yet.
Also we move tty_flip_buffer_push declaration from include/linux/tty.h
to include/linux/tty_flip.h to all others while we are changing it
anyway.

tty_insert_flip_char is the next one to proceed. This one is used all
over the code, so the patch is huge.

After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are
not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not
called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted
with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this
assumption.
To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with
the tty_port, we have to call tty_port_destroy at tear-down places.
This is mostly where the structure containing a tty_port is freed.
This patch does exactly that -- put tty_port_destroy at those places.

This special driver makes it possible to temporary use NMI debugger port
as a normal console by issuing 'nmi_console' command (assuming that the
port is attached to KGDB).
Unlike KDB's disable_nmi command, with this driver you are always able
to go back to the debugger using KGDB escape sequence ($3#33). This is
because this console driver processes the input in NMI context, and thus
is able to intercept the magic sequence.
Note that since the console interprets input and uses polling
communication methods, for things like PPP it is still better to fully
detach debugger port from the KGDB NMI (i.e. disable_nmi), and use raw
console.
Usually, to enter the debugger one have to type the magic sequence, so
initially the kernel will print the following prompt on the NMI debugger
console:
Type $3#33 to enter the debugger>
For convenience, there is a kgdb_fiq.knock kernel command line option,
when set to 0, this turns the special command to just a return key
press, so the kernel will be printing this:
Hit <return> to enter the debugger>
This is more convenient for long debugging sessions, although it makes
nmi_console feature somewhat useless.
And for the cases when NMI connected to a dedicated button, the knocking
can be disabled altogether by setting kgdb_fiq.knock to -1.
