USB: console: fix potential use after free
Use tty kref to release the fake tty in usb_console_setup to avoid use after free if the underlying serial driver has acquired a reference. Note that using the tty destructor release_one_tty requires some more state to be initialised. Fixes: 4a90f09b20f4 ("tty: usb-serial krefs") Cc: stable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>
