You're right.  But, by that same logic, we should also test
gdm->tty_dev.  So it looks like this:

        if (!GDM_TTY_READY(gdm))  {
                if (gdm && gdm->tty_dev && complete == 
RECV_PACKET_PROCESS_COMPLETE)
                        gdm_tty_recv(gdm, gdm_tty_recv_complete);
                return TO_HOST_PORT_CLOSE;
        }

That is really sucky...  Garbage code like this is why kernel style
doesn't favour macros.  We should just open code GDM_TTY_READY() and
gdm_tty_recv() so that people can read the code.

I wonder if "gdm->tty_dev" is the same as the "tty_dev" parameter?
