[PATCH 67/80] pty: Fix allocation failure double free

From: Alan Cox
Date: Mon Oct 13 2008 - 06:00:47 EST


From: Alan Cox <alan@xxxxxxxxxx>

The updating and moving around of the pty code added a bug where both the
helper and caller free the main tty struct (the pty driver must free the
o_tty pair itself however).
