Use __tty_insert_flip_string_flags() for the slow path of tty_insert_flip_char(). The former is generic enough, so there is no reason to reimplement the injection once again. So now we have a single function stuffing into tty buffers.

Here, we document functions for taking care of tty buffer and their flipping.
|
|
Drivers are supposed to fill the buffer by one of those functions below and
|
|
then flip the buffer, so that the data are passed to :doc:`line discipline
|
|
<tty_ldisc>` for further processing.
