Subjecttermios bug fix proposal
From

Right now there is at least one case in the tree (IRNET PPP)
where either the build is failing or garbage is being moved
to/from userspace for TCGETS and TCSETSF calls.

This is happening silently on x86 and friends because there is zero
type checking in these termios translator macros.

I include two changes below. The irnet_ppp.c change, which is build
tested on sparc64 (where it was failing) and I think this should be
popped over to -stable too. And also an example termios.h header
change for x86 that I would like see integrated in some shape or form,
and extended to all architectures that do things like this.

In this way such silent incorrect data won't slip through the cracks
any more.

This problem has existed for some time Alan, so I would appreciate
it very much if you would help me move things forward on this.

Thanks!
