I've been trying to figure this one out for a while, without much luck.
(Users are seeing it in 2.6.36 as well.)

I *think* (I added a rawhide debugging patch to print the tty->name)
that plymouth is always opening tty7 to cause this. My guess is the BKL
removal has exposed some kind of race, but it's not obvious to me (and
there's many other bugs to sort through too. :(

CC-ing Jiri since he seems to be the poor guy who's been poking this
recently (there's a good few threads about this (though the others look
like an ldisc attach race...)) I wouldn't think that's the case here
since N_TTY is the default...
