[PATCH] tty: Reserve ldisc 29 for development purposes

[Max Staudt]

It's handy to have an ldisc number free for out-of-tree testing. This
way, a new ldisc can be developed on any running system, without having
to recompile the kernel just to define a new number.

This is the highest number (and also the last one) available under the
old numbering scheme, so let's reserve it before it's too late.

>From now on, every new ldisc upstreamed will have to increment NR_LDISCS
in lockstep with its addition to the table in tty.h.
