  *     This routine is called synchronously when a particular tty device
  *     is closed for the last time freeing up the resources.
+ *     Note that tty_shutdown() is not called if ops->shutdown is defined.
+ *     This means one is responsible to take care of calling ops->remove (e.g.
+ *     via tty_driver_remove_tty) and releasing tty->termios.
