Subject[PATCH 46/68] tty: avoid recursive BTM in pty_close
Date
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

When the console has been redirected, a hangup of the tty
will cause tty_release to be called under the big tty_mutex,
which leads to a deadlock because hangup is also called
under the BTM.

This moves the BTM deeper into the tty_hangup function so
we can close the redirected tty without holding the BTM.
In case of pty, we now need to drop the BTM before
calling tty_vhangup.
