Subject: [PATCH 2/9] tty: n_gsm: add restart parameter to DLC specific ioctl config

From: Daniel Starke <daniel.starke@...mens.com>

'gsm_config_ext' already allows to force a link reset via 'restart'
parameter. An equivalent parameter for an forced channel reset is still
missing in 'gsm_dlci_config'. Therefore, the user has no means to perform
an automatic channel reset after parameter configuration for
non-conflicting changes. Conflicting changes automatically reset the
channel already in the current implementation.

Add the parameter 'restart' to 'gsm_dlci_config' to force a channel reset
after ioctl setting regardless of whether the changes made require this or
not.

Note that the parameter is limited to the values 0 and 1 to allow future
additions here.
