I commented on this in a previous note.
time_pps_create is called with the FILE DESCRIPTOR of the PPS device.
It knows nothing about the serial device.
So, one cant set ldisc there since one doesnt have the file descriptor of the
serial device.
AND, if one hasnt done the set ldisc, there is no file, so there cant be any
file descriptor to call time_pps_create with.
end of (2).
