This changelog still doesn't make sense so I took a look at the code.

tty_ldisc_deref() is an unlock function.  So this is a lock ordering
bug.  What makes you think the original ordering was correct?  Who
reported this bug?  What are the effects of this bug?
I was the one who introduced the ordering change in the first place.
I am just trying to fix it because although nobody complained I am not
sure of the impact and restoring the previous control flow seems to be the
right thing to do.
