For openrisc,

I reproduced this.  It seems the fix is a patch you have already posted
for doing `#define __ro_after_init __read_mostly`. Bisected to commit 
d2ec3f77de8e ("pty: make ptmx file ops read-only
after init").

That patch has not made into into the 4.9 tree it seems.  Do you have
a place you can get it in?
