Summary from the tty side:
- tty changes as proposed are an ugly hack
- I'm opposed to magically producing device nodes that were not there
before
- the pty driver doesn't use ->driver_data which is probably what you
want for some of the back walking
- tty and pty code in this area is currently in flux
- in the -next tree take a look at tty_kref_get and friends, passing kref
bumped objects back may also help get a tidier result

I'm currently trying to extract out all the pty nasty special case crap
from tty_io.c which should actually help get this right. I'd also rather
see big changes to the tty open/close logic where neccessary in favour of
further hacks on hacks.
