[PATCH 3.2 102/152] USB: console: fix potential use after free
3.2.67-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. -- From: Johan Hovold commit 32a4bf2e81ec378e5925d4e069e0677a6c86a6ad upstream. Use tty kref to release the fake tty in usb_console_setup to avoid use after free if the underlying serial driver has acquired a reference. Note that using the tty destructor release_one_tty requires some more state to be initialised.
