TTY fix for 5.3-rc4

Here is a single tty kgdb fix for 5.3-rc4.
 
 It fixes an annoying log message that has caused kdb to become useless.
 It's another fallout from ddde3c18b7 ("vt: More locking checks") which
 tries to enforce locking checks more strictly in the tty layer,
 unfortunatly when kdb is stopped, there's no need for locks :)
 
 This patch has been linux-next for a while with no reported issues
