After adding devpts multiple-insrances sysctl kernel.pty.max limit pty count for
each devpts instance independently, while kernel.pty.nr shows total pty count.
This patch restores sysctl kernel.pty.max as global limit (4096 by default),
adds pty reseve for main devpts (mounted without "newinstance" argument),
and new sysctl to tune it: kernel.pty.reserve (1024 by default)
Also it adds devpts mount option "max=%d" to limit pty count for each devpts
instance independently. (by default NR_UNIX98_PTY_MAX == 2^20)
Thus devpts instances in containers cannot eat up all available pty even if we didn't
set any limits, while with "max" argument we can adjust limits more precisely.
Plus, now open("/dev/ptmx") return -ENOSPC in case lack of pty indexes,
this is more informative than -EIO.

devpts_get_tty() returns non-null only for inodes on devpts, but there is no
inodes for master-devices, /dev/ptmx (/dev/pts/ptmx) is the only way to open them.
Thus we can completely forbid lookup for master-devices and eliminate that hack in
tty_init_dev() because tty_open() will get EIO from tty_driver_lookup_tty().

ACPI 5.0 provides extensions to the EINJ mechanism to specify the
target for the error injection - by APICID for cpu related errors,
by address for memory related errors, and by segment/bus/device/function
for PCIe related errors. Also extensions for vendor specific error
injections.

It happens because TAINT_WARN is defined in kernel.h and this particular
compile doesn't seem to include it (no idea why it's just manifesting ..
probably some #include file untangling exposed it).

We wish to be able to audit when a uid=500 task accesses a file which is
uid=0. Or vice versa. This patch introduces a new audit filter type
AUDIT_FIELD_COMPARE which takes as an 'enum' which indicates which fields
should be compared. At this point we only define the task->uid vs
inode->uid, but other comparisons can be added.
