Merge branch 'serial'
* serial: imx: Check for NULL pointer deref before calling tty_encode_baud_rate atmel_serial: fix hang in set_termios when crtscts is enabled MAINTAINERS: update 8250 section, give Alan Cox a name tty: fix sanity check pty: Narrow the race on ldisc locking tty: fix unused warning when TCGETX is not defined ldisc: debug aids ldisc: Make sure the ldisc isn't active when we close it tty: Fix leaks introduced by the shift to separate ldisc objects Fix conflicts in drivers/char/pty.c due to earlier version of the ldisc race narrowing.
