[PATCH 1/3] TTY: add support for "tty slave" devices.

[NeilBrown]

A "tty slave" is a device connected via UART.
It may need a driver to, for example, power the device on
when the tty is opened, and power it off when the tty
is released.

A "tty slave" is a platform device which is declared as a
child of the uart in device-tree:

&uart1 {
	bluetooth {
		compatible = "tty,regulator";
		vdd-supply = <&vaux4>;
	};
};

runtime power management is used to power-up the device
on tty_open() and  power-down on tty_release().
