[039/119] tty_port: If we are opened non blocking we still need to raise the carrier

2.6.31-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4175f3e31cc7157669aa66d46dc79de6ae0126ce upstream.

Original discussion:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.usb.general/23217/focus=23248
or
http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&m=125553790714133&w=2

The tty_port code inherited a bug common to various drivers it was based
upon. If the tty is opened O_NONBLOCK we do not wait for the carrier to be
raised but we must still raise our modem lines if appropriate.

(There is a second question here about whether we should do so if CLOCAL is
set but that can wait)
