serial: uartps: Register own uart console and driver structures
Every instance is registering own struct console and struct uart_driver with minor number which corresponds to alias ID (or 0 now) and with 1 uart port. The same alias ID is saved to tty_driver->name_base which is key field for creating ttyPSX name. Because name_base and minor number are setup already there is no need to setup any port->line number because 0 is the right value. Unfortunately this driver is setting up major number to 0 for using dynamic assignment and kernel is allocating different major numbers for every instance instead of using the same major and different minor number. ~# ls -la /dev/ttyPS* crw------- 1 root root 252, 0 Jan 1 03:36 /dev/ttyPS0 crw--w---- 1 root root 253, 1 Jan 1 00:00 /dev/ttyPS1 When major number is not 0. For example 252 then major/minor combinations are in expected form ~# ls -la /dev/ttyPS* crw------- 1 root root 252, 0 Jan 1 04:04 /dev/ttyPS0 crw--w---- 1 root root 252, 1 Jan 1 00:00 /dev/ttyPS1 Driver is not freeing struct cdns_uart_console in case that instance is not used as console. The reason is that console is incorrectly unregistred and "console [0] disabled" message will be shown.
