Re: [PATCH 25/35] tty: remove tty_operations::chars_in_buffer for non-buffering

The only user of tty_ops::chars_in_buffer is tty_chars_in_buffer. And it
considers tty_ops::chars_in_buffer optional. In case it's NULL, zero is
returned. So remove all those chars_in_buffer from tty_ops which return
zero. (Zero means such driver doesn't buffer.)

Uh, "C" is a fugitive. Wanted dead or alive.

So should I send a v2 with:
