Subject: serdev: ttyport: enforce tty-driver open() requirement
From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit dee7d0f3b200c67c6ee96bd37c6e8fa52690ab56 ]
The tty-driver open routine is mandatory, but the serdev
tty-port-controller implementation did not treat it as such and would
instead fall back to calling tty_port_open() directly.
