As notted by Jiri, tty_ldisc_reinit() shouldn't rely on tty counter.
Simplify math by increasing the counter after reinit success.

There might be situations where tty_ldisc_lock() has blocked, but there
is already IO on tty and it prevents line discipline changes.
It might theoretically turn into dead-lock.
Basically, provide more priority to pending tty_ldisc_lock() than to
servicing reads/writes over tty.
User-visible issue was reported by Mikulas where on pa-risc with
Debian 5 reboot took either 80 seconds, 3 minutes or 3:25 after proper
locking in tty_reopen().

tty_ldisc_reinit() doesn't race with neither tty_ldisc_hangup()
nor set_ldisc() nor tty_ldisc_release() as they use tty lock.
But it races with anyone who expects line discipline to be the same
after hoding read semaphore in tty_ldisc_ref().
We've seen the following crash on v4.9.108 stable:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000000000002260
IP: [..] n_tty_receive_buf_common+0x5f/0x86d
Workqueue: events_unbound flush_to_ldisc
Call Trace:
[..] n_tty_receive_buf2
[..] tty_ldisc_receive_buf
[..] flush_to_ldisc
[..] process_one_work
[..] worker_thread
[..] kthread
[..] ret_from_fork
tty_ldisc_reinit() should be called with ldisc_sem hold for writing,
which will protect any reader against line discipline changes.

ldsem_down_read() will sleep if there is pending writer in the queue.
If the writer times out, readers in the queue should be woken up,
otherwise they may miss a chance to acquire the semaphore until the last
active reader will do ldsem_up_read().
There was a couple of reports where there was one active reader and
other readers soft locked up:
Showing all locks held in the system:
2 locks held by khungtaskd/17:
#0: (rcu_read_lock){......}, at: watchdog+0x124/0x6d1
#1: (tasklist_lock){.+.+..}, at: debug_show_all_locks+0x72/0x2d3
2 locks held by askfirst/123:

#1: (&ldata->atomic_read_lock){+.+...}, at: n_tty_read+0x115/0xbe4
Prevent readers wait for active readers to release ldisc semaphore.

nr_pdflush_threads has been long deprecated and
removed, but a remnant of its glorious past is
still around in CTL_VM names enum. This patch
is a minor clean-up to that case.

sysrq_do_reset() is called in softirq context, so it cannot call
sync() directly. Instead, call orderly_reboot(), which creates a work
item to run /sbin/reboot, or do emergency_sync and restart if the
command fails.
