6e94dbc7a4 tty: cumulate and document tty_struct::flow* members
Group the flow flags under a single struct called flow. The new struct
contains 'stopped' and 'tco_stopped' bools which used to be bits in a
bitfield. The struct also contains the lock protecting them to
potentially share the same cache line.

Note that commit c545b66c69 (tty: Serialize tcflow() with other tty
flow control changes) added a padding to the original bitfield. It was
for the bitfield to occupy a whole 64b word to avoid interferring stores
on Alpha (cannot we evaporate this arch with weird implications to C
code yet?). But it doesn't work as expected as the padding
(tty_struct::unused) is aligned to a 8B boundary too and occupies some
bytes from the next word.

So make it reliable by:
1) setting __aligned of the struct -- that aligns the start, and
2) making 'unsigned long unused[0]' as the last member of the struct --
   pads the end.

This is also the perfect time to start the documentation of tty_struct
where all this lives. So we start by documenting what these bools
actually serve for. And why we do all the alignment dances. Only the few
up-to-date information from the Theodore's comment made it into this new
Kerneldoc comment.

f397c8d80a mmc: block: Move files to core
Once upon a time it made sense to keep the mmc block device driver and its
related code, in its own directory called card. Over time, more an more
functions/structures have become shared through generic mmc header files,
between the core and the card directory. In other words, the relationship
between them has become closer.

By sharing functions/structures via generic header files, it becomes easy
for outside users to abuse them. In a way to avoid that from happen, let's
move the files from card directory into the core directory, as it enables
us to move definitions of functions/structures into mmc core specific
header files.

Note, this is only the first step in providing a cleaner mmc interface for
outside users. Following changes will do the actual cleanup, as that is not
part of this change.
