Looking over the drivers/tty/* patches, all of the patches
that save 300+ and 1000+ look ok to me, so if you want to
send those as a series (to the tty maintainers), I'll be
happy to mark them reviewed.

Wrt the "saves 100+' patches, some are ok, some are not,
and some I'd like to eliminate in a different way.
If you want to send those as a separate series, I could
mark as reviewed the ok patches, indicate which ones
to drop and which patches I'd be willing to rework.

Regards,
Peter Hurley
