tty: Fix lockless tty buffer race

Commit 6a20dbd6caa2358716136144bf524331d70b1e03,
"tty: Fix race condition between __tty_buffer_request_room and flush_to_ldisc"
correctly identifies an unsafe race condition between
__tty_buffer_request_room() and flush_to_ldisc(), where the consumer
flush_to_ldisc() prematurely advances the head before consuming the
last of the data committed. For example:

           CPU 0                     |            CPU 1
__tty_buffer_request_room            | flush_to_ldisc
  ...                                |   ...
                                     |   count = head->commit - head->read
  n = tty_buffer_alloc()             |
  b->commit = b->used                |
  b->next = n                        |
                                     |   if (!count)                /* T */
                                     |     if (head->next == NULL)  /* F */
                                     |     buf->head = head->next

In this case, buf->head has been advanced but head->commit may have
been updated with a new value.

Instead of reintroducing an unnecessary lock, fix the race locklessly.
Read the commit-next pair in the reverse order of writing, which guarantees
the commit value read is the latest value written if the head is
advancing.
