PATCH RESEND 1/1 pty: show associative slave of ptmx in fdinfo

This patch adds "tty-index" field to /proc/PID/fdinfo/N if N specifies /dev/ptmx. The field shows the index of associative slave pts.

Though a minor number is given for each pts instance, ptmx is not. It means there is no way in user-space to know the association between file descriptors for pts/n and ptmx. (n = 0, 1, ...)

This is different from pipe. About pipe such association can be solved by inode of pipefs.

Providing the way to know the association between pts/n and ptmx helps users understand the status of running system. lsof can utilize this field.

There is no real need for all of the #ifdef everywhere here, if PROC_FS is not enabled, the functions will just not be called, right?

Can you fix this up and resend a new version?

thanks,
