So here you skip initialisation and return NULL if the tty isn't already
in use (e.g. is open) when shared is set.

"rnel"?

Yet, you claim to do initialisation here, which isn't the case.

This "kopen" naming is unfortunate as the tty isn't really opened by
either of these functions, but that's not something you introduced.
