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)

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.

- Fix inline function declarations
- Use #ifdef for CONFIG_*, not #if

Remove the limit of 2048 pty's - allocate them on demand up to the 12:20
dev_t limit: a million.

* devpts "upcalls" eliminated.
* instead of playing games with revalidation we simply use
ramfs-style tree and kill dentries upon devpts_pty_kill(). That
allows to get rid of a lot of code in fs/devpts/*.c.
* devpts_fs.h cleaned up.
* devpts/root.c and devpts/devpts_i.h removed.
* array of pointers to devpts inodes killed; with ramfs-style tree
it's not needed anymore.
* devpts/inode.c cleaned up.
* devpts_pty_new() used to get mk_kdev() only to convert it to
dev_t (hardly a surprise, since it's mknod() in disguise). Now it gets
dev_t as an argument.
