No big TTY/serial patch merge for 3.6-rc1

From: Greg KH

Hi Linus,

I don't really feel comfortable sending you the tty tree at the present
time to have merged for 3.6-rc1. It contains some tty changes that are
still causing build problems, as Stephen has pointed out over the past
week. These fixes are being resolved by Alan, but I don't feel that
they have had the time to fully be tested, and given the late arrival of
them (i.e. the past few days), and the lack of real amount of time
testing in linux-next, I'd really like to postpone the whole merge until
3.7.

Right now, this really isn't a whole lot of patches, there are only 62
patches in the tty-next tree. I've included below the full diffstat and
shortlog of them if anyone wants to see them.

There are maybe a few patches below that I think I should cherry-pick
and have you pull, but that's just a handful, and are only for a few
drivers, nothing in the tty core code at all.

Jiri, I know this postpones your patches from being merged, sorry about
that, but this gives us a few more months to ensure that they are
working properly :)

Alan, please keep sending me patches to fix these merge issues, but for
now, I think it's best to wait until 3.7 for this to go to Linus.

thanks,

greg k-h
