Subject[PATCH 0/1] tty: disassociate_ctty() sends the extra SIGCONT
Hello.

I know nothing about tty's, I have no idea why disassociate_ctty()
checked on_exit before kill_pgrp(SIGCONT). And why this depends on
tty/old_pgrp/TTY_DRIVER_TYPE_PTY.

But this was changed in v3.10, probably by f91e2590 "tty: Signal
foreground group processes in hangup", and this breaks LSB tests
which do not expect the "wrong" SIGCONT.

The patch cc's stable, but it needs the ack or nack from someone
who these HUP/CONT rules.

IOW, I won't argue if the user-visible (and undocumented) change
added by f91e2590 is actually fine, in this case LSB should be
fixed.

Oleg.
