From: Johan Hovold <jo...@kernel.org>

3.4.107-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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


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.

Fixes: 4a90f09b20f4 ("tty: usb-serial krefs")

[lizf: Backported to 3.4: adjust context]
