Subject[PATCH] net: remove unnecessary disc_data_lock in ppp line discipline
Date
In tty layer, it use tty->ldisc_sem(using tty_ldisc_ref_wait and
tty_ldisc_deref) to proect tty_ldisc_ops.

So I think tty->ldisc_sem can also protect tty->disc_data;
For examlpe, When cpu A is running ppp_synctty_ioctl that hold
the tty->ldisc_sem, at the same time if cpu B calls ppp_synctty_close,
it will wait until cpu A release tty->ldisc_sem.

So I think it is unnecessary to define additional disc_data_lock;

cpu A cpu B
tty_ioctl tty_reopen
->hold tty->ldisc_sem ->hold tty->ldisc_sem(write), failed
->ld->ops->ioctl ->wait...
->release tty->ldisc_sem ->wait...OK,hold tty->ldisc_sem
->tty_ldisc_reinit
->tty_ldisc_close
->ld->ops->close
