n_tty: Fix unsafe reference to "other" ldisc
Although n_tty_check_unthrottle() has a valid ldisc reference (since the tty core gets the ldisc ref in tty_read() before calling the line discipline read() method), it does not have a valid ldisc reference to the "other" pty of a pty pair. Since getting an ldisc reference for tty->link essentially open-codes tty_wakeup(), just replace with the equivalent tty_wakeup().
