tty: don't deadlock while flushing workqueue

tty: don't deadlock while flushing workqueue

commit 852e4a8152b427c3f318bb0e1b5e938d64dcdc32 upstream.

Since commit 89c8d91e31f2 ("tty: localise the lock") I see a dead lock
in one of my dummy_hcd + g_nokia test cases. The first run was usually
okay, the second often resulted in a splat by lockdep and the third was
usually a dead lock.
Lockdep complained about tty->hangup_work and tty->legacy_mutex taken
both ways:

|other info that might help us debug this:
|
|Chain exists of:
|  &tty->legacy_mutex --> &tty->legacy_mutex/1 --> (&tty->hangup_work)
|
| Possible unsafe locking scenario:

| *** DEADLOCK ***

Before the path mentioned tty_ldisc_release() look like this:

|	tty_ldisc_halt(tty);
|	tty_ldisc_flush_works(tty);
|	tty_lock();

As it can be seen, it first flushes the workqueue and then grabs the
tty_lock. Now we grab the lock first:

|	tty_lock_pair(tty, o_tty);
|	tty_ldisc_halt(tty);
|	tty_ldisc_flush_works(tty);

so lockdep's complaint seems valid.

The earlier version of this patch took the ldisc_mutex since the other
user of tty_ldisc_flush_works() (tty_set_ldisc()) did this.
Peter Hurley then said that it is should not be requried. Since it
wasn't done earlier, I dropped this part.
The code under tty_ldisc_kill() was executed earlier with the tty lock
taken so it is taken again.

I was able to reproduce the deadlock on v3.8-rc1, this patch fixes the
problem in my testcase. I didn't notice any problems so far.
