From: Alan Cox <alan@redhat.com>
Every tty driver has its own concept of a port structure and because they all
differ we cannot extract commonality. Begin fixing this by creating a structure
drivers can elect to use so that over time we can push fields into this and
create commonality and then introduce common methods.
