[PATCH] net, TTY: initialize tty->driver_data before usage

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Thu Oct 04 2012 - 20:02:07 EST


Commit 9c650ffc ("TTY: ircomm_tty, add tty install") split _open() to
_install() and _open(). It also moved the initialization of driver_data
out of open(), but never added it to install() - causing a NULL ptr
deref whenever the driver was used.
