introduced a potential NULL dereference to some drivers. In
particular, when the device is used as a console, incoming bytes can
kill the box. This is caused by removed checks for TTY against NULL.
It happened because it was unclear to me why the checks were there. I
assumed them superfluous because the interrupts were unbound or
otherwise stopped. But this is not the case for consoles for these
drivers, as was pointed out by David Miller.
Now, this patch re-introduces the checks (at this point we check
port->state, not the tty proper, as we do not care about tty pointers
anymore). For both of the drivers, we place the check below the
handling of break signal so that sysrq can actually work. (One needs
to issue a break and then sysrq key within the following 5 seconds.)
We do not change sc26xx, sunhv, and sunsu here because they behave the
same as before. People having that hardware should fix the driver
eventually, however. They always could unconditionally dereference tty
in receive_chars, port->state in uart_handle_dcd_change, and
up->port.state->port.tty.
There is perhaps more to fix in all those drivers, but they are at
least in a state they were before.

tty_perform_flush() can deadlock when called while holding
a line discipline reference. By definition, all ldisc drivers
hold a ldisc reference, so calls originating from ldisc drivers
must not block for a ldisc reference.
The deadlock can occur when:
CPU 0 | CPU 1
|
tty_ldisc_ref(tty) |
.... | <line discipline halted>
tty_ldisc_ref_wait(tty) |
|
CPU 0 cannot progess because it cannot obtain an ldisc reference
with the line discipline has been halted (thus no new references
are granted).
CPU 1 cannot progress because an outstanding ldisc reference
has not been released.
An in-tree call-tree audit of tty_perform_flush() [1] shows 5
ldisc drivers calling tty_perform_flush() indirectly via
n_tty_ioctl_helper() and 2 ldisc drivers calling directly.
A single tty driver safely uses the function.

tty_ldisc_ref()/tty_ldisc_unref() have usage semantics
equivalent to down_read_trylock()/up_read(). Only
callers of tty_ldisc_put() are performing the additional
operations necessary for proper ldisc teardown, and then only
after ensuring no outstanding 'read lock' remains.
Thus, tty_ldisc_unref() should never be the last reference;
WARN if it is. Conversely, tty_ldisc_put() should never be
destructing if the use count != 1.

Waiting for buffer work to complete is not required for safely
performing changes to the line discipline, once the line discipline
is halted. The buffer work routine, flush_to_ldisc(), will be
unable to acquire an ldisc ref and all existing references were
waited until released (so it can't already have one).
Ensure running buffer work which may reference the soon-to-be-gone
tty completes and any buffer work running after this point retrieves
a NULL tty.
Also, ensure all buffer work is cancelled on port destruction.

The pty driver does not obtain an ldisc reference to the linked
tty when writing. When the ldiscs are sequentially halted, it
is possible for one ldisc to be halted, and before the second
ldisc can be halted, a concurrent write schedules buffer work on
the first ldisc. This can lead to an access-after-free error when
the scheduled buffer work starts on the closed ldisc.
Prevent subsequent use after halt by performing each stage
of the halt on both ttys.

In preparation for destructing and freeing the tty, the line discipline
must first be brought to an inactive state before it can be destructed.
This line discipline shutdown must:
- disallow new users of the ldisc
- wait for existing ldisc users to finish
- only then, cancel/flush their pending/running work
Factor tty_ldisc_wait_idle() from tty_set_ldisc() and tty_ldisc_kill()
to ensure this shutdown order.
Failure to provide this guarantee can result in scheduled work
running after the tty has already been freed, as indicated in the
following log message:

Make sure we do not make tty-driver callbacks or wait for port to drain
on uninitialised ports (e.g. when open failed) in
tty_port_close_start().
No callback, such as flush_buffer or wait_until_sent, needs to be made
on a port that has never been opened. Neither does it make much sense to
add drain delay for an uninitialised port.
Currently a drain delay of up to two seconds could be added when a tty
fails to open.

Move HUPCL handling to port shutdown so that DTR is dropped also on hang
up (tty_port_close is a noop for hung-up ports).
Also do not try to drop DTR for uninitialised ports where it has never
been raised (e.g. after a failed open).
Note that this is also the current behaviour of serial-core.
Nine drivers currently call tty_port_close_start directly (rather than
through tty_port_close) and seven of them lower DTR as part of their
close (if the port has been initialised). Fixup the remaining two
drivers so that it continues to be lowered also on normal (non-HUP)
close. [ Note that most of those other seven drivers did not expect DTR
to have been dropped by tty_port_close_start in the first place. ]
