exit: call disassociate_ctty() before exit_task_namespaces()
Commit 8aac62706ada ("move exit_task_namespaces() outside of
exit_notify()") breaks pppd and the exiting service crashes the kernel:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000028
IP: ppp_register_channel+0x13/0x20 [ppp_generic]
Call Trace:
ppp_asynctty_open+0x12b/0x170 [ppp_async]
tty_ldisc_open.isra.2+0x27/0x60
tty_ldisc_hangup+0x1e3/0x220
__tty_hangup+0x2c4/0x440
disassociate_ctty+0x61/0x270
do_exit+0x7f2/0xa50
ppp_register_channel() needs ->net_ns and current->nsproxy == NULL.
Move disassociate_ctty() before exit_task_namespaces(), it doesn't make
sense to delay it after perf_event_exit_task() or cgroup_exit().
This also allows to use task_work_add() inside the (nontrivial) code
paths in disassociate_ctty().
