[PATCH 13/48] TTY: introduce deinit helpers for proper ldisc shutdown

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxx>]

From: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@xxxxxxx>

Introduce deinitialize_tty_struct which should be called after
initialize_tty_struct and before successfull tty_ldisc_setup.

It calls tty_ldisc_deinit which is opposite of tty_ldisc_init. It only
puts a reference to ldisc and assigns NULL to tty->ldisc.

It will be used to shut down ldisc when tty_release cannot be called
yet.
