Jiri Slaby f11afb6124 TTY: devpts, do not set driver_data
The goal is to stop setting and using tty->driver_data in devpts code.
It should be used solely by the driver's code, pty in this case.

Now driver_data are managed only in the pty driver. devpts_pty_new is
switched to accept what we used to dig out of tty_struct, i.e. device
node number and index.

This also removes a note about driver_data being set outside of the
driver.

Jiri Slaby 162b97cfa2 TTY: devpts, return created inode from devpts_pty_new
The goal is to stop setting and using tty->driver_data in devpts code.
It should be used solely by the driver's code, pty in this case.

For the cleanup of layering, we will need the inode created in
devpts_pty_new to be stored into slave's driver_data. So we convert
devpts_pty_new to return the inode or an ERR_PTR-encoded error in case
of failure.

The move of 'inode = new_inode(sb);' from declarators to the code is
only cosmetical, but it makes the code easier to read.

Jiri Slaby 8fcbaa2b7f TTY: devpts, don't care about TTY in devpts_get_tty
The goal is to stop setting and using tty->driver_data in devpts code.
It should be used solely by the driver's code, pty in this case.

First, here we remove TTY from devpts_get_tty and rename it to
devpts_get_priv. Note we do not remove type safety, we just shift the
[implicit] (void *) cast one layer up.

index was unused in devpts_get_tty, so remove that from the prototype
too.

Sukadev Bhattiprolu 15f1a6338d Add an instance parameter devpts interfaces
Pass-in 'inode' or 'tty' parameter to devpts interfaces.  With multiple
devpts instances, these parameters will be used in subsequent patches
to identify the instance of devpts mounted. The parameters also help
simplify devpts implementation.

Changelog[v3]:
	- minor changes due to merge with ttydev updates
	- rename parameters to emphasize they are ptmx or pts inodes
	- pass-in tty_struct * to devpts_pty_kill() (this will help
	  cleanup the get_node() call in a subsequent patch)

Sukadev Bhattiprolu 718a916338 devpts: factor out PTY index allocation
Factor out the code used to allocate/free a pts index into new interfaces,
devpts_new_index() and devpts_kill_index().  This localizes the external data
structures used in managing the pts indices.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
