4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Richard Guy Briggs <rgb@redhat.com>

commit 76a658c20efd541a62838d9ff68ce94170d7a549 upstream.

Move the calculations of values after the allocation in case the
allocation fails.  This avoids wasting effort in the rare case that it
fails, but more importantly saves us extra logic to release the tty
ref.
