[2.6.20.17 review 45/58] Hangup TTY before releasing rfcomm_dev

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Wed Aug 22 2007 - 05:05:53 EST


The core problem is that RFCOMM socket layer ioctl can release
rfcomm_dev struct while RFCOMM TTY layer is still actively using
it. Calling tty_vhangup() is needed for a synchronous hangup before
rfcomm_dev is freed.
