Fix race/oops in tty layer after BKL pushdown

While testing our KVM code for s390 (starting and killall kvm in a loop)
I can reproduce the following oops:

It seems that tty was already free in disassocate_ctty when it tries
to dereference tty->driver.

After moving the lock_kernel before the mutex_unlock, I can no longer
reproduce the problem.

[ This is a temporary partial fix for the documented and long standing
  race in disassociate_tty.  This stops most problem cases for now.

  For the next release the -next tree has an initial implementation of
  kref counting for tty structures and this quickfix will be dropped.
