This reverts commit b1c43f82c5.
It was broken in so many ways, and results in random odd pty issues.
It re-introduced the buggy schedule_work() in flush_to_ldisc() that can
cause endless work-loops (see commit a5660b41af6a: "tty: fix endless
work loop when the buffer fills up").
It also used an "unsigned int" return value fo the ->receive_buf()
function, but then made multiple functions return a negative error code,
and didn't actually check for the error in the caller.
And it didn't actually work at all. BenH bisected down odd tty behavior
to it:
"It looks like the patch is causing some major malfunctions of the X
server for me, possibly related to PTYs. For example, cat'ing a
large file in a gnome terminal hangs the kernel for -minutes- in a
loop of what looks like flush_to_ldisc/workqueue code, (some ftrace
data in the quoted bits further down).
...
Some more data: It -looks- like what happens is that the
flush_to_ldisc work queue entry constantly re-queues itself (because
the PTY is full ?) and the workqueue thread will basically loop
forver calling it without ever scheduling, thus starving the consumer
process that could have emptied the PTY."
which is pretty much exactly the problem we fixed in a5660b41af.
Milton Miller pointed out the 'unsigned int' issue.

We register lapb when tty is created, but unregister it only when the
device is UP. So move the lapb_unregister to x25_asy_close_tty after
the device is down.
The old behaviour causes ldisc switching to fail each second attempt,
because we noted for us that the device is unused, so we use it the
second time, but labp layer still have it registered, so it fails
obviously.

All these files use the big kernel lock in a trivial
way to serialize their private file operations,
typically resulting from an earlier semi-automatic
pushdown from VFS.
None of these drivers appears to want to lock against
other code, and they all use the BKL as the top-level
lock in their file operations, meaning that there
is no lock-order inversion problem.
Consequently, we can remove the BKL completely,
replacing it with a per-file mutex in every case.
Using a scripted approach means we can avoid
typos.

With port configured with PCR_FRM_SYNC_OUTPUT* and external clock, bringing
the hdlcX interface up and down without active clock supplied to the HSS
causes a TX lockup. We don't support channelized/partial interfaces so
FRaMe signals can't be used anyway, disabling them makes the lockup go away.
Changes to this logic will be required if we want to support channelized
HSS mode (this is most probably bug in NPE-A HSS firmware).
