tty: don't store semi-state into tty drivers
When a tty driver pointer is used as a return value of struct console's device() hook, don't store a semi-state into global variable which holds the tty driver. It could mean console::device() would return a bogus value. This is important esp. after the next patch where we switch from alloc_tty_driver to tty_alloc_driver. tty_alloc_driver returns ERR_PTR in case of error and that might have unexpected results as the code doesn't expect this.
