	asm/termios.h has tons of duplication and rather
convoluted logics re includes.

	First of all, while everyone has uapi asm/termios.h,
some architectures have asm/termios.h and some do not.  So
include of <asm/termios.h> can go either to arch asm/termios.h,
or to uapi/asm/termios.h.
	In the former case asm/termios.h defines a bunch of
helpers (used in just one file) and a constant (3 more users)
and includes uapi/asm/termios.h
	In the latter... uapi/asm/termios.h is in generated-y
or equivalent to it.  Which is to say, it ends up doing
#include <asm-generic/termios.h>.  Userland-side that would
refer to uapi/asm-generic/termios.h, but kernel-side we end
up with plain asm-generic/termios.h.  Which defines the same
set of helpers and a constant and pulls uapi/asm-generic/termios.h

	Helpers in question are heavily shared; there is an attempt
to put them into a common header (termios-base.h), but not all
instances use it.  Another unpleasant thing is that said helpers
tend to be macros, with very little typechecking.  And all of that
is pulled in by a lot more places than those that are actually
interested - 500-odd instead of 4.

	Below is an attempt to untangle that; the branch is vfs.git#work.termios,
patches in followups.  FWIW, diffstat is
