tty: Avoid possible error pointer dereference at tty_ldisc_restore().
syzbot is reporting crashes [1] triggered by memory allocation failure at tty_ldisc_get() from tty_ldisc_restore(). While syzbot stops at WARN_ON() due to panic_on_warn == true, panic_on_warn == false will after all trigger an OOPS by dereferencing old->ops->num if IS_ERR(old) == true. We can simplify tty_ldisc_restore() as three calls (old->ops->num, N_TTY, N_NULL) to tty_ldisc_failto() in addition to avoiding possible error pointer dereference. If someone reports kernel panic triggered by forcing all memory allocations for tty_ldisc_restore() to fail, we can consider adding __GFP_NOFAIL for tty_ldisc_restore() case.
