Re: [PATCH] RS485 on Cris: use global value of TIOCSRS485

With this patch, TIOCSRS485 gets the same value across all
architectures, making maintenance and portability of user-level code
easier.

I don't see why this is worth doing - no application code should ever
hardcode the value.

+	case TIOCSRS485DEPR:
+	{
+		printk(KERN_DEBUG "The use of this ioctl is deprecated. Use TIOCSRS485 instead\n");
+		/* Fall through */
+	}

and letting everyone spew printks is not a good thing.
