[PATCH] hvc_console: Rearrange code
Milton Miller has done a lot of work to clean up our hvc_console code.
One of the important things the following patch series does is separate the
VIO layer from the hvc_console code. With the VIO specific code removed any
ppc64 platform, or even any architecture, can use hvc_console as a generic
polling console. You simply have to supply a get_chars and put_chars method
and hvc_console does the rest of the work. You can even use it for an
interrupt driven console.
This patch:
Rearrange the code in drivers/char/hvc_console.c to make future patches
smaller. No actual code changes, just ordering of the functions in the file.
