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.
