Subject: [PATCH 21/31] CAPI: Remove useless checks for tty->driver_data or hung up state

Remove more desperate attempts to fix races in the original code: As
long as the TTY is open, its driver_data cannot become NULL. And we
already call tty_hangup to signal the end of a connection, no need to
check for mp->nccip in addition.
