tty: serial: switch from circ_buf to kfifo Switch from struct circ_buf to proper kfifo. kfifo provides much better API, esp. when wrap-around of the buffer needs to be taken into account. Look at pl011_dma_tx_refill() or cpm_uart_tx_pump() changes for example. Kfifo API can also fill in scatter-gather DMA structures, so it easier for that use case too. Look at lpuart_dma_tx() for example. Note that not all drivers can be converted to that (like atmel_serial), they handle DMA specially. Note that usb-serial uses kfifo for TX for ages. omap needed a bit more care as it needs to put a char into FIFO to start the DMA transfer when OMAP_DMA_TX_KICK is set. In that case, we have to do kfifo_dma_out_prepare twice: once to find out the tx_size (to find out if it is worths to do DMA at all -- size >= 4), the second time for the actual transfer. All traces of circ_buf are removed from serial_core.h (and its struct uart_state).
