[PATCH 2/3] USB: serial: make minor allocation dynamic

[Greg KH]

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This moves the allocation of minor device numbers from a static array to
be dynamic, using the idr interface.  This means that you could
potentially get "gaps" in a minor number range for a single USB serial
device with multiple ports, but all should still work properly.

Note, we still have the limitation of 255 USB to serial devices in the
system, as that is all we are registering with the TTY layer at this
point in time.
