Fix atomicity of TIF update in flush_thread() for sparc64

Fixes correctly the race by using *_ti_thread_flag.

Race :

parent process executing :
sys_ptrace()
 (lock_kernel())
 (ptrace_get_task_struct(pid))
 arch_ptrace()
   ptrace_detach()
     ptrace_disable(child);
       clear_singlestep(child);
         clear_tsk_thread_flag(child, TIF_SINGLESTEP);
         (which clears the TIF_SINGLESTEP flag atomically from a different
          process)
 (put_task_struct(child))
 (unlock_kernel())

And at the same time, in the child process :
sys_execve()
 do_execve()
   search_binary_handler()
     load_elf_binary()
       flush_old_exec()
         flush_thread()
           doing a non-atomic thread flag update

Delay the read of the EC status register until
after the event that caused it occurs -- otherwise
it is possible to read and act on stale status that was
associated with the previous event.

Do this with a perpetually incrementing "event_count" to detect
when a new event occurs and it is safe to read status.

There is no workaround for polling mode -- it is inherently
exposed to reading and acting on stale status, since it
doesn't have an interrupt to tell it the event completed.

Here is a patch adding the PID for the FT232RL to ftdi_sio. The patch
generates a warning during compilation because get_ftdi_divisor doesn't
explicitly handle the FT232RL with this patch, so I guess you don't want
to use it in its current state. It is all I could come up with with the
knowledge I have of the drivers at the moment, though, and I hope you
can have some use for it at least. It works fine with my DLP-TILT with
an FT232RL.

I encountered some problems with the airprime driver in use with a Novatel
Merlin XU870:

Closing an open Connection to e.g. /dev/ttyUSB0 doesn't reset the
RTS/DTR lines of the Modem.  Consequently, when I use minicom to
establish a connection by "ATD*99#" the modem doesn't hang up even if i
exit minicom and so I cannot reuse the modem unless I remove it and plug
it in again.

With the attached patch, the RTS/DTR lines are resetted on a close.  The
code was mainly taken from the option.c driver.

Convert all the port specific code in attach / shutdown to use the new
port_probe / port_register callbacks from device_register /
device_unregister allowing adding the sysfs attributes to be added at
the correct time and to the serial port device itself, instead of to
the unadorned usb device, avoiding a NULL dereference.

I've developed some devices with FTDI chips (FT232xx). FTDI was so kind
to give some own PID's which I can use together with their VID. Some of
the devices are already very popular here and I have customers from
universities, institutes .....

I use the FTDI VID 0x0403. My PID's are:

0xff38 - IBS US485 (USB<-->RS422/485 interface)
0xff39 - IBS PIC-Programmer
0xff3a - IBS Card reader for PCMCIA SRAM-cards
0xff3b - IBS PK1 - Particel counter
0xff3c - IBS RS232 - Monitor
0xff3d - APP 70 (dust monitoring system)
0xff3e - IBS PEDO-Modem (RF modem 868.35 MHz)
0xff3f - future device

The company is "IBS Ing.-Buero Schleusener".

This patch (as863) fixes a problem encountered sometimes when resuming
a port on a UHCI controller.  The hardware may turn off the
Resume-Detect bit before turning off the Suspend bit, leading usbcore
to think that the port is still suspended and the resume has failed.
The patch makes uhci_finish_suspend() wait until both bits are safely
off.

a bulk URB is submitted to an interrupt endpoint.
