Subject: [PATCH 6/11]: 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.
