- Stop drivers calling their own flush method indirectly, it obfuscates code
and it will change soon anyway
- A few more lock_kernel paths temporarily needed in some driver internal
waiting code
- Remove private put_char method that does a write call for one char - we
have that anyway
- Most but not yet all of the termios copy under lock fixing (some has other
dependencies to follow)
- Note a few locking bugs in drivers found in the process
- Kill remaining [ab]users of TIOCG/SSOFTCAR in the driver, these must go to
fix the termios locking

Due to some flaws in the initialization and flow control
code kernel oopses could be triggered e.g. when accessing
the card too early after insertion.
See e.g. kernel.org bug #10077.
The main part of the fix is a trivial state management
making sure the card is realy ready to use before allowing
any access.

Minor cleanups and removal of in-file changelog:
- Correction of misspellings and wrong encoded Name
- changed 'unsigned' to 'unsigned int' for better readability
- use of generic devicefile access macro
- fixed/added explanatory comment to ntty_put_char

This is a driver to control the cardbus wireless data card that works on
3g networks.
Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> did the initial driver cleanup.
Thanks to Arnaud Patard <apatard@mandriva.com> for help with bugfixing.
Thanks to Alan Cox for a lot of tty fixes.
Thanks to Satyam Sharma <satyam@infradead.org> for fixing buildbreakage.
Thanks to Frank Seidel <fseidel@suse.de> for a lot of bugfixes and
rewriting to make it a sane Linux driver
Thanks to Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com> for a lot bugfixes, cleanups
and rewrites that make it much more readable.
