Subject: Oops after merge of tty-next

I'm getting an Oops in the linux-next tree today after the merge of the 
remote-tracking branch 'tty/tty-next'.  I bisected it down to commit 
36b3c070d2346c890d690d71f6eab02f8c511137 in 
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git :

   tty: Move the handling of the tty release logic

Sorry, I don't have a copy of the Oops right now, but it's failing 
somewhere in tty_open() or check_tty_count() during system boot, 
probably when getty opens one of the vc tty devices.

I've attached my .config file in case it contains any clues.

I'd provide more info, but I'm about to call it a night!
