Remove bogons from the iSeries console
The iSeries driver calls into the n_tty ldisc code directly for some bizarre reason. I previously tagged this with a query but this actually does need fixing as n_tty methods when you have a different ldisc set are not a good thing to call. In n_tty mode this change should have no effect, the core tty layer has always called the ldisc ioctl method *anyway* and will call the one for the right ldisc.
