4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Christian Brauner <christian.brauner@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 7d71109df186d630a41280670c8d71d0cf9b0da9 upstream. Hoist the check whether we have already found a suitable devpts filesystem out of devpts_ptmx_path() in preparation for the devpts bind-mount resolution patch. This is a non-functional change.
