Add "SER_RS485_MODE_RS422" flag to struct serial_rs485, so that serial port can switch interface into RS422 if supported by using ioctl command "TIOCSRS485". By treating RS422 as a mode of RS485, which means while enabling RS422 there are two flags need to be set (SER_RS485_ENABLED and SER_RS485_MODE_RS422), it would make things much easier. For example some places that checks for "SER_RS485_ENABLED" won't need to be rewritten.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
