tty: Fix ref counting for port krefs
The tty core supports two models for handling tty_port lifetimes; the tty_port can use the kref supplied by tty_port (which will automatically destruct the tty_port when the ref count drops to zero) or it can destruct the tty_port manually. For tty drivers that choose to use the port kref to manage the tty_port lifetime, it is not possible to safely acquire a port reference conditionally. If the last reference is released after evaluating the condition but before acquiring the reference, a bogus reference will be held while the tty_port destruction commences. Rather, only acquire a port reference if the ref count is non-zero and allow the caller to distinguish if a reference has successfully been acquired.
