tty: hvc_console, fix crashes on parallel open/close

Browse Source 
hvc_open sets tty->driver_data to NULL when open fails at some point.
Typically, the failure happens in hp->ops->notifier_add(). If there is
a racing process which tries to open such mangled tty, which was not
closed yet, the process will crash in hvc_open as tty->driver_data is
NULL.

All this happens because close wants to know whether open failed or not.
But ->open should not NULL this and other tty fields for ->close to be
happy. ->open should call tty_port_set_initialized(true) and close
should check by tty_port_initialized() instead. So do this properly in
this driver.

So this patch removes these from ->open:
* tty_port_tty_set(&hp->port, NULL). This happens on last close.
* tty->driver_data = NULL. Dtto.
* tty_port_put(&hp->port). This happens in shutdown and until now, this
  must have been causing a reference underflow, if I am not missing
  something.
