4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Peter Hurley <[email protected]>

commit e9036d0662360cd4c79578565ce422ed5872f301 upstream.

When the tty lock is interrupted on attempted re-open, 2 tty krefs
are still held. Drop extra kref before returning failure from
tty_lock_interruptible(), and drop lookup kref before returning
failure from tty_open().

Fixes: 0bfd464d3fdd ("tty: Wait interruptibly for tty lock on reopen")
