Subject: [PATCH 1/2] TTY: ldisc, fix open flag handling
Date:	Thu, 25 Nov 2010 00:27:54 +0100

When a concrete ldisc open fails in tty_ldisc_open, we forget to clear
TTY_LDISC_OPEN. This causes a false warning on the next ldisc open:
WARNING: at drivers/char/tty_ldisc.c:445 tty_ldisc_open+0x26/0x38()
Hardware name: System Product Name
Modules linked in: ...
Pid: 5251, comm: a.out Tainted: G        W  2.6.32-5-686 #1
Call Trace:
 [<c1030321>] ? warn_slowpath_common+0x5e/0x8a
 [<c1030357>] ? warn_slowpath_null+0xa/0xc
 [<c119311c>] ? tty_ldisc_open+0x26/0x38
 [<c11936c5>] ? tty_set_ldisc+0x218/0x304
...

So clear the bit when failing...

Introduced in c65c9bc3efa (tty: rewrite the ldisc locking) back in
2.6.31-rc1.
