The tty audit buffer used to audit/record tty input is allocated on
the process's first call to tty_audit_add_data(), and not freed until
the process exits. On each call to tty_audit_add_data(), the current
tty is compared (by major:minor) with the last tty associated with
the audit buffer, and if the tty has changed the existing data is
logged to the audit log. The audit buffer is then re-associated with
the new tty.

Currently, the audit buffer is immediately associated with the tty;
however, the association must be re-checked when the buffer is locked
prior to copying the tty input. This extra step is always necessary,
since a concurrent read of a different tty by another thread of the
process may have used the buffer in between allocation and buffer
lock.

Rather than associate the audit buffer with the tty at allocation,
leave the buffer initially un-associated (null dev_t); simply let the
re-association check also perform the initial association.
