tty: fix data race on tty_buffer.commit 

Race on buffer data happens when newly committed data is
picked up by an old flush work in the following scenario:
__tty_buffer_request_room does a plain write of tail->commit,
no barriers were executed before that.
At this point flush_to_ldisc reads this new value of commit,
and reads buffer data, no barriers in between.
The committed buffer data is not necessary visible to flush_to_ldisc.

Similar bug happens when tty_schedule_flip commits data.

Update commit with smp_store_release and read commit with
smp_load_acquire, as it is commit that signals data readiness.
This is orthogonal to the existing synchronization on tty_buffer.next,
which is required to not dismiss a buffer with unconsumed data.

The data race was found with KernelThreadSanitizer (KTSAN).
