The dtr_rts and carrier methods are called in the right places, at the right times (hopefully now anyway) from a single place. The idea of that is to remove lots of often incorrect driver specific code and keep it under control in one location. the tty_port.c patch is a real bug that is shared across drivers so needs fixing there. The other bit makes cp210x use the new framework and in doing so makes it properly standards compliant as well.
