tty: Merge tty_buffer_find() into tty_buffer_alloc()
tty_buffer_find() implements a simple free list lookaside cache. Merge this functionality into tty_buffer_alloc() to reflect the more traditional alloc/free symmetry. Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley <peter@hurleysoftware.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
