tty_open can return to userspace holding tty_mutex
__tty_open could return (to userspace) holding the tty_mutex thanks to a
regression introduced by 4a2b5fddd53b80efcb3266ee36e23b8de28e761a ("Move
tty lookup/reopen to caller").
This was found by bisecting an fsfuzzer problem. Admittedly I have no
idea how it managed to tickle this 100% reliably, but it is clearly a
regression and when hit leaves the box in a completely unusable state.
This patch lets the fsfuzzer test complete every time.
