It seems Correction, it doesn't fail the test, but creates a new /dev/ttyprintk file.. but still, I think this should be addressed. Rather than that, the test runs good for me, it fails with 4.16-rc7 kernel and passes with the mentioned patch applied. Brian, would you please help review the new version of this patch in patchset "[PATCH 0/4] misc. fstests changes" (patch 3/4) as well? I really like a Reviewed-by tag from someone who knows all the details of the test and the fix :) Thanks a lot!
