Basically that means checking for ->write result, doesn't it?

And what stops your precious IDE controller from spewing garbage and
filling the log? Nothing I think. I'll lower the priority of the
messages though.

Currently it's applicable to only one (well, two) type of evkits from
FreeScale flashed with pretty much specific firmware. For other evkits
one have to write firmware on his own. Unlike bluetooth there is no
standard for such communication over serial proto. Also if there will be
any RS-232 device which implements IEEE 802.15.4 PHY layer and doesn't
follow this protocol, we can extend the ldisc to be more like hci-uart:
a multiplexor of protocols.

Fine with me. I'll move this into helper in tty layer.

Sample code? SLIP, hci-uart, ppp don't do it.

C&P from drivers/bluetooth/hci-ldisc.c, around line 466. We had problems
working with low-latency unset.

See above. Didn't see refounting in any of ldiscs checked.
That's not a 'no, I won't do it', but rather 'wait, all those are also
buggy ?!'

In final version, it will go away.
