Subject: [PATCHv4] tty: n_gsm: add ioctl to map serial device to mux'ed tty

Guessing the first tty for a gsm0710 multiplexed serial device is not
currently possible, which makes it racy to use with multiple modems.

Add a way to map the physical serial tty to its related mux devices
using an ioctl.

Signed-off-by: Martin Hundebøll <[email protected]>
---

Changes since v3:
* use __u32 instead of uint32_t

Changes since v2:
* rename IOCTL from GSMIOC_GETBASE to GSMIOC_GETFIRST
* return first usable line instead of private control line
* return uint32_t instead of int

Changes since v1:
* use put_user() instead of copy_to_user()
* add missing opening quote

Sorry for the delay, given that no one else has objected to it, I'll go
queue it up now.
