Fixes the following W=1 kernel build warning(s):

drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c:158: warning: cannot understand function prototype: 'int tty_ldisc_autoload = IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_LDISC_AUTOLOAD); '
drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c:199: warning: Function parameter or member 'ld' not described in 'tty_ldisc_put'
drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c:260: warning: duplicate section name 'Note'
drivers/tty/tty_ldisc.c:717: warning: Function parameter or member 'reinit' not described in 'tty_ldisc_hangup'

Having tty_ldisc_get in kernel-doc, while tty_ldisc_put not doesn't make much sense. What's missing to tty_ldisc_put to conform to kernel-doc?
