* void (*shutdown)(struct tty_struct * tty);

- * This routine is called synchronously when a particular tty device
- * is closed for the last time freeing up the resources.
- * Note that tty_shutdown() is not called if ops->shutdown is defined.
- * This means one is responsible to take care of calling ops->remove (e.g.
- * via tty_driver_remove_tty) and releasing tty->termios.
- * Note that this hook may be called from *all* the contexts where one
- * uses tty refcounting (e.g. tty_port_tty_get).
- *
+ * This routine is called under the tty lock when a particular tty device
+ * is closed for the last time. It executes before the tty resources
+ * are freed so may execute while another function holds a tty kref.
