tty: Don't call panic() at tty_ldisc_init()
commit 903f9db10f18f735e62ba447147b6c434b6af003 upstream.
syzbot is reporting kernel panic [1] triggered by memory allocation failure
at tty_ldisc_get() from tty_ldisc_init(). But since both tty_ldisc_get()
and caller of tty_ldisc_init() can cleanly handle errors, tty_ldisc_init()
does not need to call panic() when tty_ldisc_get() failed.
