[PATCH] tty reference count fix

Fix hole where tty structure can be released when reference count is non
zero.  Existing code can sleep without tty_sem protection between deciding
to release the tty structure (setting local variables tty_closing and
otty_closing) and setting TTY_CLOSING to prevent further opens.  An open
can occur during this interval causing release_dev() to free the tty
structure while it is still referenced.

This should fix bugzilla.kernel.org [Bug 6041] New: Unable to handle kernel
paging request

In Bug 6041, tty_open() oopes on accessing the tty structure it has
successfully claimed.  Bug was on SMP machine with the same tty being
opened and closed by multiple processes, and DEBUG_PAGEALLOC enabled.
