tty: Fix race in tty release
Ian Abbott found that the tty layer would explode with the right set of
parallel open and close operations. This is because we race in the
handling of tty->drivers->termios[].
Correct this by
Making tty_ldisc_release behave like nromal code (takes the lock,
does stuff, drops the lock)
Drop the tty lock earlier in tty_ldisc_release
Taking the tty mutex around the driver->termios update in all cases
Adding a WARN_ON to catch future screwups.
I also forgot to clean up the pty resources properly. With a pty pair we
need to pull both halves out of the tables.
