Mediatek Preloader is a proprietary embedded boot loader for loading Little Kernel and Linux into device DRAM.
This boot loader also handle firmware update. Mediatek Preloader will be enumerated as a virtual COM port when the device is connected to Windows or Linux OS via CDC-ACM class driver. When the USB enumeration has been done, Mediatek Preloader will send out handshake command "READY" to PC actively instead of waiting command from the download tool. Since Linux 4.12, the commit "tty: reset termios state on device registration" (93857edd9829e144acb6c7e72d593f6e01aead66) causes Mediatek Preloader receiving some abnoraml command like "READYXX" as it sent. This will be recognized as an incorrect response. The behavior change also causes the download handshake fail.
By disabling the ECHO termios flag could avoid this problem. However, it cannot be done by user space configuration when download tool open /dev/ttyACM0. This is because the device running Mediatek Preloader will send handshake command "READY" immediately once the CDC-ACM driver is ready.
This patch wants to fix above problem by introducing "DISABLE_ECHO" property in driver_info. When Mediatek Preloader is connected, the CDC-ACM driver could disable ECHO flag in termios to avoid the problem.

Changes for v2:
- Move quirks testing of DISABLE_ECHO flag into acm_tty_install().
- Change quirks testing into bitwise comparison.
Changes for v3:
- Replace clear flag operation from driver->init_termios to tty->termios.
- Remove parenthesis of ECHO flag.
Thanks for the update. Looks good, just some minor issues below.

I'd drop the quirks variable as you only need it once and acm->quirks is pretty short to begin with.

Please make this description more general; other devices may also end up needing to suppress initial echoing.
- if (quirks & DISABLE_ECHO)
tty->termios.c_lflag &= ~ECHO;
And finally, please move this just after installing the tty (i.e. before setting tty->driver data).
