Remove devpts_root global
Remove the 'devpts_root' global variable and find the root dentry using the super_block. The super-block can be found from the device inode, using the new wrapper, pts_sb_from_inode(). Changelog: This patch is based on an earlier patchset from Serge Hallyn and Matt Helsley.
