I fixed it up (I just used the latter version) ...
The latter version triggers build errors.
Jiri's patch needs fixing. Instead of:
+ tty_driver_kref_put(driver);
it needs to be:
+ tty_driver_kref_put(pdc_console_tty_driver);
Jiri, maybe you can fix it in your tree?
I'm happy to drop the patch from my tree.
The tty tree commits first create a "driver" variable that is used
until it is clear everything works and then it is assigned to
pdc_console_tty_driver.
