In gsmtty_remove, we will put dlci. when dlci's ref-count is zero,
tty_port_destructor will be called, and it will check if port->itty is
NULL.
However port->itty will be set to NULL in release_tty after gsmtty_remove.
that may cause memory leak. so we use queue_work to put the dlci later.

I am afraid you cannot guarantee it is "late enough" by this approach.
The work can be already running before itty is set to NULL.
If I am looking correctly the work can be moved from ->remove tothanks for your advice. I will upload pathchV2 after a full test.
->cleanup, right?
And it would be worth to add a Fixes line to the commit log.currently dlci will be put by
dfabf7ffa30585 introduced this.
And could you describe the scenario when it happens to the commit log
too? Like closing the other end first, before the tty.
thanks,--
