  19 * The trace sink uses the Linux line discipline framework to receive
  20 * trace data coming from the PTI source line discipline driver
  21 * to a user-desired tty port, like USB.
  22 * This is to provide a way to extract modem trace data on
  23 * devices that do not have a PTI HW module, or just need modem
  24 * trace data to come out of a different HW output port.
  25 * This is part of a solution for the P1149.7, compact JTAG, standard.
