In this version only rs485.flags are stored to state.
There is no locking as only one bit of the flags is used.
ioctl returns -ENOIOCTLCMD as the actual error handling is in tty code.
And the difference between previous versions?  Take a look at the
documentation for how to better describe version differences please.

I'll try to be more precise in the future.

+	memset(&rs485, 0, sizeof(rs485));
But you just copied this from userspace, why zero it out again?  Is that
to be expected (I really don't remember, sorry).


serial.h says

/*
 * Serial interface for controlling RS485 settings on chips with suitable
 * support. Set with TIOCSRS485 and get with TIOCGRS485 if supported by your  * platform. The set function returns the new state, with any unsupported bits
 * reverted appropriately.
 */

This may mean only the flags, but I decided to zero the other unsupported fields as well.


Anyway, just minor comments, I'll let others review it as well.

thanks,

greg k-h
