[PATCH 3.12 080/142] staging/speakup: Use tty_ldisc_ref() for paste kworker

[Jiri Slaby]

From: Peter Hurley <peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.12-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

===============

commit f4f9edcf9b5289ed96113e79fa65a7bf27ecb096 upstream.

As the function documentation for tty_ldisc_ref_wait() notes, it is
only callable from a tty file_operations routine; otherwise there
is no guarantee the ref won't be NULL.

The key difference with the VT's paste_selection() is that is an ioctl,
where __speakup_paste_selection() is completely async kworker, kicked
off from interrupt context.

Fixes: 28a821c30688 ("Staging: speakup: Update __speakup_paste_selection()
       tty (ab)usage to match vt")
