Define get_init_pts_sb()

See comments in the function header for details. The new interface will
be used in a follow-on patch.

Changelog [v2]:
	[Dave Hansen] Replace get_sb_ref() in fs/super.c with get_init_pts_sb()
	and make the new interface private to devpts

+/*
+ * get_init_pts_sb()
+ *
+ *     This interface is needed to support multiple namespace semantics in
+ *     devpts while preserving backward compatibility of the current 'single-
+ *     namespace' semantics. i.e all mounts of devpts without the 'newinstance'
+ *     mount option should bind to the initial kernel mount, like
+ *     get_sb_single().
+ *
+ *     Mounts with 'newinstance' option create a new private namespace.
+ *
+ *     But for single-mount semantics, devpts cannot use get_sb_single(),
+ *     because get_sb_single()/sget() find and use the super-block from
+ *     the most recent mount of devpts. But that recent mount may be a
+ *     'newinstance' mount and get_sb_single() would pick the newinstance
+ *     super-block instead of the initial super-block.
+ *
+ *     This interface is identical to get_sb_single() except that it
+ *     consistently selects the 'single-namespace' superblock even in the
+ *     presence of the private namespace (i.e 'newinstance') super-blocks.
