Subject: drivers/tty: compute current directly
This patch effectively replaces the tsk pointer dereference (which is
obviously == current), to directly use get_current() macro. This is to
make the removal of setting foreign task states smoother and painfully
obvious. Performance win on some archs such as x86-64 and ppc64 -- arm64
is no longer an issue:
