Log:
  Make linux stat(2) return the same st_dev for every devfs instance.
  The reason for this is to work around an idiosyncrasy of glibc
  getttynam(3) implementation: it checks whether st_dev returned for
  fd 0 is the same as st_dev returned for the target of /proc/self/fd/0
  symlink, and with linux chroots having their own devfs instance,
  the check will fail if you chrooted into it.
