- writing to a PTY master side blocks if there is not already a
blocked reader on the slave side, and select now reflects this;
- internally, TTY now uses a test based on "caller != NONE" rather
than "grant != GRANT_INVALID" to identify whether a call is
currently ongoing;
- "offset" fields have been removed as they equal the corresponding
"cum" fields;
- improved variable typing and function naming here and there;
- various other small fixes.

. ignore interrupt (stop interrupt check loop) if
interrupt bit not set; limit loop too
. mask off other bits when testing bits in the status register
. this fixes rs232 output that would otherwise never get re-triggered
as too many bits were set in the status byte to match the
possibilities.

.Split TTY in order to support both x86 and ARM.
.Add support for the TI 16750 UARTs on OMAP35x.
.Various other improvements:
.Kernel messages are printed using generic terminal write
functions. That is, they are no longer directly displayed
on the console.
.The console can now be displayed on any terminal. This
is configured by the "console={tty00,tty01,ttyc2,ttyc3,ttyc4}"
boot variable -- basically any valid /dev/tty* terminal.
.Cutify kernel messages with colors. Configured by
"kernelclr={1,2,3,4,5,6,7}" boot variable.
