After sleeping this night :) I think is better defing the
uart_handle_dcd_change() into serial_core.h as follow:

uart_handle_dcd_change(struct uart_port *port, unsigned int status)
{
struct uart_info *info = port->info;
struct tty_ldisc *ld = tty_ldisc_ref(info->port.tty);
struct timespec ts;

if (ld->ops->dcd_change)
#ifdef CONFIG_PPS_IRQ_EVENTS
ts = pps_irq_ts[port->irq];
#else
getnstimeofday(&ts);
#endif

port->icount.dcd++;
#ifdef CONFIG_HARD_PPS
if ((port->flags & UPF_HARDPPS_CD) && status)
hardpps();
#endif

if (info->flags & UIF_CHECK_CD) {
if (status)
wake_up_interruptible(&info->port.open_wait);
else if (info->port.tty)
tty_hangup(info->port.tty);
}

if (ld->ops->dcd_change)
ld->ops->dcd_change(info->port.tty, status, &ts);
tty_ldisc_deref(ld);
}

This completely hides the (dirty) trick to the PPS clients and allow
using struct tty_struct as first parameter.

Is that acceptable?
