If the module is physically present, driver creates 2 TTYs for each supported
device in /dev, ttyGNSS_<device>:<function>_0 and _1. First one (_0) is RW and
the second one is RO.
The protocol of write commands is dependent on the GNSS module as the driver
writes raw bytes from the TTY to the GNSS i2c.

I added this to Documentation/.
