Jiri Slaby 4e2a44c140 tty: add kfifo to tty_port ...

Define a kfifo inside struct tty_port. We use DECLARE_KFIFO_PTR and let
the preexisting tty_port::xmit_buf be also the buffer for the kfifo.
And handle the initialization/decomissioning along with xmit_buf, i.e.
in tty_port_alloc_xmit_buf() and tty_port_free_xmit_buf(), respectively.

This allows for kfifo use in drivers which opt-in, while others still
may use the old xmit_buf. mxser will be the first user in the next
few patches.
