TTY/Serial fixes for 4.5-rc2

Here are some small tty/serial driver fixes for 4.5-rc2.

They resolve a number of reported problems (the ioctl one specifically
has been pointed out by numerous people) and one patch adds some new
device ids for the 8250_pci driver.  All have been in linux-next
successfully.
