[PATCH 3/7] sysctl: Simplify the pty sysctl logic.

[Eric W. Biederman]

Instead of having a bunch of ifdefs in sysctl.c
move all of the pty sysctl logic into drivers/char/pty.c

As well as cleaning up the logic this prevents
sysctl_check_table from complaining that the root
table has a NULL data pointer on something with
generic methods.
