In the ttyname and ttyname_r routines on Linux, at several points it needs to
check if a given TTY is the TTY we are looking for. It used to be that this
check was (to see if `maybe` is `mytty`):
__xstat64(_STAT_VER, maybe_filename, &maybe) == 0
#ifdef _STATBUF_ST_RDEV
&& S_ISCHR(maybe.st_mode) && maybe.st_rdev == mytty.st_rdev
#else
&& maybe.st_ino == mytty.st_ino && maybe.st_dev == mytty.st_dev
#endif
This check appears in several places.
Then, one of the changes made in commit 15e9a4f378c8607c2ae1aa465436af4321db0e23
was to change that check to:
__xstat64(_STAT_VER, maybe_filename, &maybe) == 0
#ifdef _STATBUF_ST_RDEV
&& S_ISCHR(maybe.st_mode) && maybe.st_rdev == mytty.st_rdev
#endif
&& maybe.st_ino == mytty.st_ino && maybe.st_dev == mytty.st_dev
That is, it made the st_ino and st_dev parts of the check happen even if we have
the st_rdev member. This is an important change, because the kernel allows
multiple devpts filesystem instances to be created; a device file in one devpts
instance may share the same st_rdev with a file in another devpts instance, but
they aren't the same file.
This check appears twice in each file (ttyname.c and ttyname_r.c), once (in
ttyname and __ttyname_r) to check if a candidate file found by inspecting /proc
is the desired TTY, and once (in getttyname and getttyname_r) to check if a
candidate file found by searching /dev is the desired TTY. However, 15e9a4f
only updated the checks for files found via /proc; but the concern about
collisions between devpts instances is just as valid for files found via /dev.
So, update all 4 occurrences the check to be consistent with the version of the
check introduced in 15e9a4f. Make it easy to keep all 4 occurrences of the
check consistent by pulling it in to a static inline function, is_mytty.

is_pty returning a bool is fine since there's no possible outcome other than
true or false, and bool is used throughout the codebase.

Linux 4.10 moved many of the documentation files around.
4.10 came out between the time the patch adding the comment (commit
15e9a4f378c8607c2ae1aa465436af4321db0e23) was submitted and the time
it was applied (in February, January, and March 2017; respectively).

If a link (say /proc/self/fd/0) pointing to a device, say /dev/pts/2, in a
parent mount namespace is passed to ttyname, and a /dev/pts/2 exists (in a
different devpts) in the current namespace, then it returns /dev/pts/2.
But /dev/pts/2 is NOT the current tty, it is a different file and device.
Detect this case and return ENODEV. Userspace can choose to take this as a hint
that the fd points to a tty device but to act on the fd rather than the link.
