Subject: [PATCHv3 4/6] tty/lockdep: Add ldisc_sem asserts

Make sure under CONFIG_LOCKDEP that each change to line discipline
is done with held write semaphor.
Otherwise potential reader will have a good time dereferencing
incomplete/uninitialized ldisc.

Exception here is tty_ldisc_open(), as it's called without ldisc_sem
locked by tty_init_dev() for the tty->link.
