This series fixes a number of issues with the new serdev code, which was based on incorrect tty-port lifetime assumptions. The first patch disables serdev support by reverting the patch which hooked into the tty layer in a broken way that leads to crashes and leaks when deregistering devices. This one should probably go into 4.11. The second patch fixes a specific bug in the tty-port client registration code, while the third patch adds a new interface for registering serdev devices. The final patch ultimately enables serdev again for the serial drivers. More details can be found in the individual commit messages.
