+From linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org Wed Nov 24 18:28:11 2010
+From: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz>
+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] TTY: ldisc, fix open flag handling
+Date: Thu, 25 Nov 2010 00:27:54 +0100
+
+When a concrete ldisc open fails in tty_ldisc_open, we forget to clear
+TTY_LDISC_OPEN. This causes a false warning on the next ldisc open:
+WARNING: at drivers/char/tty_ldisc.c:445 tty_ldisc_open+0x26/0x38()
+Hardware name: System Product Name
+Modules linked in: ...
+Pid: 5251, comm: a.out Tainted: G W 2.6.32-5-686 #1
+Call Trace:
+ [<c1030321>] ? warn_slowpath_common+0x5e/0x8a
+ [<c1030357>] ? warn_slowpath_null+0xa/0xc
+ [<c119311c>] ? tty_ldisc_open+0x26/0x38
+ [<c11936c5>] ? tty_set_ldisc+0x218/0x304
+...
+
+So clear the bit when failing...
+
+Introduced in c65c9bc3efa (tty: rewrite the ldisc locking) back in
+2.6.31-rc1.
