Umm. So even though the vt driver knows the tty has been shutdown,
keystrokes will still be buffered? And then fed to whichever tty happens
to next get installed on the same port?

Pretty much renders this meaningless:

static void flush_to_ldisc(struct work_struct *work)
{
....
+ if (WARN_RATELIMIT(tty == NULL, "tty is NULL"))
+ return;
