Use software emulated RS485 direction control to provide RS485 API

Currently it is not possible to use rs485 as pointer to
rs485_config struct in struct uart_port is NULL in case we
configure the port through device tree.

Thank you for the patch, few recommendations for the future submissions.

Patch is based on:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master
commit:
505a8ec7e11a - Revert "drm/i915/userptr: Acquire the page lock around set_page_dirty()"

More reliably is to base on corresponding subsystem tree, i.e. tty-next for
this case.

Ok, should I send a rebased v2 (I tend to wait for other comments)?

checkpatch output:
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl 0001-tty-8250_of-Use-software-emulated-RS485-direction-co.patch
total: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 43 lines checked

0001-tty-8250_of-Use-software-emulated-RS485-direction-co.patch has no obvious style problems and is ready for submission.

There is no need to mention this. It's supposed that submitter did that
themselves.

Hmm... ok.

When you gather people to send the patch to, I recommend to use some threshold,
e.g. `scripts/get_maintainer.pl --git --git-min-percent=67 ...`

Ah, good tip, thanks!

bye,
Heiko
