n_tty: Lock access to tty->pgrp for POSIX job control
Concurrent access to tty->pgrp must be protected with tty->ctrl_lock. Also, as noted in the comments, reading current->signal->tty is safe because either, 1) current->signal->tty is assigned by current, or 2) current->signal->tty is set to NULL. NB: for reference, tty_check_change() implements a similar POSIX check for the ioctls corresponding to tcflush(), tcdrain(), tcsetattr(), tcsetpgrp(), tcflow() and tcsendbreak().
