Since commit a5f276f10ff7 (serial_core: Handle TIOC[GS]RS485 ioctls.,
2014-11-06) serial_core handles RS485 ioctls. Drivers only need to implement
the rs485_config callback. Update serial-rs485.txt to reflect these changes.

Any driver for devices capable of working both as RS232 and RS485 should
- provide at least the following ioctls:
-
- - TIOCSRS485 (typically associated with number 0x542F). This ioctl is used
- to enable/disable RS485 mode from user-space
-
- - TIOCGRS485 (typically associated with number 0x542E). This ioctl is used
- to get RS485 mode from kernel-space (i.e., driver) to user-space.
-
- In other words, the serial driver should contain a code similar to the next
- one:
-
- static struct uart_ops atmel_pops = {
- /* ... */
- .ioctl = handle_ioctl,
- };
-
- static int handle_ioctl(struct uart_port *port,
- unsigned int cmd,
- unsigned long arg)
- {
- struct serial_rs485 rs485conf;
-
- switch (cmd) {
- case TIOCSRS485:
- if (copy_from_user(&rs485conf,
- (struct serial_rs485 *) arg,
- sizeof(rs485conf)))
- return -EFAULT;
-
- /* ... */
- break;
-
- case TIOCGRS485:
- if (copy_to_user((struct serial_rs485 *) arg,
- ...,
- sizeof(rs485conf)))
- return -EFAULT;
- /* ... */
- break;
-
- /* ... */
- }
- }

+ implement the rs485_config callback in the uart_port structure. The

+ receives a pointer to struct serial_rs485.
