Subject: linux-2.6.31 INIT: open(/dev/console): Input/output error (due to
commit b50989dc444599c8b21edc23536fc305f4e9b7d5)
Latest linux pull few days ago broke the console.
The error during boot up while switching from init S to M showed
INIT: open(/dev/console): Input/output error
Reverting this commit solves the problem. This is 100% repeatable on a
"real" machine, but does not show up on kvm or vmware guest console.

tty: make the kref destructor occur asynchronously
We want to be able to sleep in the destructor for USB at least. It isn't a
hot path so just pushing it to a work queue doesn't really cause any
difficulty.
