The struct 'tty_struct' has a callback to read the status flags of the tty
if the tty driver provides them. So fare, the data is transferred directly
to userspace with the function 'tty_tiocmget'. This function cannot be
used to evaluate the status line of the tty interface in the ledtrig-tty
trigger. To make this possible, a new function must be added that does
not immediately pass the data on to userspace.
The new function 'tty_get_mget' only returns the status register.
This information can then be processed further in the ledtrig-tty
trigger.

Heh, the naming is funny. It apparently comes from tiocmget. But that
comes from:
tty ioctl modem get (TIOCMGET)
tty ioctl modem set (TIOCMSET)
So you should name it like tty_get_modem() not get_mget().
Also those extra spaces around "-" caused some issues in the generated
output and should be removed (everywhere).

Superfluous empty line here.
