There is no in-kernel function to get the status register of a tty device
like the TIOCMGET ioctl returns to userspace. Create a new function,
tty_get_tiocm(), to obtain the status register that other portions of the
kernel can call if they need this information, and move the existing
internal tty_tiocmget() function to use this interface.

Why not simply:
{
  if (tty->ops->tiocmget)
     return tty->ops->tiocmget(tty);

  return -ENOTTY;
}
?

I just did it this way because it is also done this way in other 
functions
in this file.

Of course, we could also do it this way. If this is the C style for the 
kernel,
then I will change it. Please give me a short feedback whether I should 
change it
and send a v9, or whether it is just a comment from you.

Best regards
