Umm...  Are you sure we never call that for non-TTY files?  Seeing that
it's exported and all such...  For internal uses (tty_read(), etc.) the
check for file being NULL is pointless; for general-purpose primitive
we probably want to check ->f_op as well...

That needs a comment in commit message - hangup indication doesn't
need to be reset here, since tty_release() has freed the entire thing
that used to hang off the ->private_data.

It doesn't - file->f_op->open() is only called once, and only on fresh
struct file.
