Ok, How do I then from kernel space, ask a user-space daemon to open the TTY port and do a tiocsetd on it ? 
[i.e ask for a line discipline to be installed ?]

Can't open the TTY and TIOCSETD upon boot, because BT, FM and GPS might be used or not used anytime.

What would cause the kernel to want to tell userspace to do this?  Is it
an external event that happens somehow that userspace should know to


Why?

thanks,
