This reverts commit b1c43f82c5.
It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues.
It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can
cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless
work loop when the buffer fills up").
It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf()
function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code,
and didn't actually check for the error in the caller.
And it didn't actually work at all. BenH bisected down odd tty behavior
to it:
"It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X
server for me, possibly related to PTYs. For example, cat'ing a
large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a
loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace
data in the quoted bits further down).
...
Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the
flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because
the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop
forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer
process that could have emptied the PTY."
which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af.
Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

it makes it simpler to keep track of the amount of
bytes received and simplifies how flush_to_ldisc counts
the remaining bytes. It also fixes a bug of lost bytes
on n_tty when flushing too many bytes via the USB

Problem description:
gsm_queue() calculate a CRC for arrived frames. As a last step of
CRC calculation it call
gsm->fcs = gsm_fcs_add(gsm->fcs, gsm->received_fcs);
This work perfectly for the case of GSM0 mode as gsm->received_fcs
contain the last piece of data required to generate final CRC.
gsm->received_fcs is not used for GSM1 mode. Thus we put an
additional byte to CRC calculation. As result we get a wrong CRC
and reject incoming frame.

* the GSM 07.10 specification says in 5.4.3.1 that
'both stations shall set the P bit to 0'
thanks to Alan Cox for finding this explanation in the spec
* without this fix, on Telit & Sim.com modems, opening a new DLC
randomly fails. Not setting PF bit of the control byte gives a
reliable behaviour on these modems.

We don't actually need this and it causes problems for internal use of
this functionality. Currently there is a single use of the FILE * pointer.
That is the serial core which uses it to check tty_hung_up_p. However if
that is true then IO_ERROR is also already set so the check may be removed.

Fix message length handling when building header
When the message length is greater than 127, the length field in the header
is built incorrectly. According to the spec, when the length is less than 128
the length field is a single byte formatted as: bbbbbbb1. When it is greater
than 127 then the field is two bytes of the format: bbbbbbb0 bbbbbbbb.
