cool ;)
I think the current error paths do not release some memory
- tty_struct in tty_open path
- tty_struct/dev_pts_index/inode in ptmx_open error paths
question is if that's a big deal in case we were not able to allocate
as much as struct tty_file_private..
I'm attaching my patch rebased for linux-next, but I would not mind
this one being omitted for the reason above.
thanks,
jirka

Added error handling for struct tty_file_private allocation,
Fixed error paths in tty_open and ptmx_open.
