get_logname() assumes that when it calls read() it initializes c and errno, which isn't always true if we hit a whitelisted error or end of file. This occasionally shows up as agetty going into an infinite loop. Fix it by just delaying ten seconds and exiting when things go wrong, similarly to the behavior after a non-whitelisted error.
