[PATCH] tty: drop outdated comments about release_tty() locking

[PATCH] tty: drop outdated comments about release_tty() locking

[Eric Biggers]

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com>

The current version of the TTY code unlocks the tty_struct(s) before
release_tty() rather than after.  Moreover, tty_unlock_pair() no longer
exists.  Thus, remove the outdated comments regarding tty_unlock_pair().
