[PATCH] large dev_t - second series (6/15)
tty redirect handling sanitized. Such ttys (/dev/tty and /dev/console) get a different file_operations; its ->write() handles redirects; checks for file->f_op == &tty_fops updated, checks for major:minor being that of a redirector replaced with check for ->f_op->write value. Piece of code in tty_io.c that had been #if 0 since 0.99<something> had been finally put out of its misery. kdev_val() is gone.
