Changing NR_PTYS should work with the code unmodified (well, you may have to change the mapping from pty numbers to kdev_t's but that's really unrelated); to make the pty's dynamic you'd have to do a little more work, but the changes should be trivial (you would want to change the inodes array to something dynamic, as well as change the tests against NR_PTYS).
Nothing that amounts to rocket science.
