Re: [RFC PATCH 4/5] hvc_console: Add tty window resizing

The patch provides the hvc_resize() function to update the terminal
window dimensions (struct winsize) for a specified hvc console.
The function stores the new window size and schedules a function
that finally updates the tty winsize and signals the change to
user space (SIGWINCH).
Because the winsize update must acquire a mutex and might sleep,
the function is scheduled instead of being called from hvc_poll()
or khvcd.

I want this functionality for lguest, too.  But I don't see anything which 
uses this call yet?   Are we going to use the config_change notifier from 
virtio?  (Which IIRC neither S/390 nor lguest have plumbed in).
