I think that tt needs an __rcu annotation. Sparse says:
.../tashtalk.c:290:14: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces):

actual is set but otherwise unused in this function.
Should it be used as part of checking, with an error code returned on error?
If not, it should probably be removed.

I think tty->disc_data also needs an __rcu annotation, which will
likely highlight the need for annotations elsewhere. Flagged by Sparse.
