I think so yes, although I'd not realised it wasn't protected currently ?

There is a lot of near duplicate code like this. That is one reason for
adding struct tty_port. In theory both could be collapsed into
int tty_port_handle_sysrq(struct tty_port *port, unsigned int ch)
{
}
at this point as both USB and serial layer UARTs now have a port object.
That would just need port->sysrq collapsing into the tty_port.
port->console sort of already is.

That also looks wrong - tty_port_tty_get takes a tty kref. I will check
that Monday and look at collapsing these int one as you note.
