[PATCH/BK] RESEND TRIVIAL fix run-together lines in /proc/tty/driver/serial

[Matthias Andree]

Hi,

/proc/tty/driver/serial runs together lines for known UARTS when the
user has no CAP_SYS_ADMIN capabilities. The patch below fixes this.
Works and fixes the problem for me.

# This is a BitKeeper generated patch for the following project:
# Project Name: Linux kernel tree
# This patch format is intended for GNU patch command version 2.5 or higher.
# This patch includes the following deltas:
#	           ChangeSet	1.1350.1.9 -> 1.1350.2.1
#	drivers/serial/serial_core.c	1.72    -> 1.73   
#
# The following is the BitKeeper ChangeSet Log
# --------------------------------------------
# 03/10/26	torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxx	1.1350.1.10
# Add a sticky "PF_DEAD" task flag to keep track of dead processes.
# 
# Use this to simplify 'finish_task_switch', but perhaps more
# importantly we can use this to track down why some processes
# seem to sometimes not die properly even after having been
# marked as ZOMBIE. The "task->state" flags are too fluid to 
# allow that well.
# --------------------------------------------
# 03/10/27	matthias.andree@xxxxxx	1.1350.2.1
# Properly terminate /proc/tty/driver/serial output lines of known UARTS
# when the caller has no CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability.
# --------------------------------------------
