Ok, I definitely prefer this simpler version.

We could simplify it even more, though. That end could be just

...
dput(path.dentry);
if (!err) {
if (DEVPTS_SB(path.mnt->mnt_sb) == fsi)
return path.mnt;
err = -ENODEV;
}

mntput(path.mnt);
return ERR_PTR(err);

instead.

And it might be worth adding a comment that devpts_ptmx_path() always
returns a DEVPTS filesystem of an error. I already wrote out "that's
not right, you can't do DEVPTS_SB() without checking s_magic", but
devpts_ptmx_path() will have done that already.
