[PATCH v2 1/6] serial: uartps: Use the same dynamic major number for all ports
From: Michal Simek
Date: Wed Jun 12 2019 - 07:19:36 EST
From: Shubhrajyoti Datta <shubhrajyoti.datta@xxxxxxxxxx>
Let kernel to find out major number dynamically for the first device and
then reuse it for other instances.
This fixes the issue that each uart is registered with a
different major number.
After the patch:
crw------- 1 root root 253, 0 Jun 10 08:31 /dev/ttyPS0
crw--w---- 1 root root 253, 1 Jan 1 1970 /dev/ttyPS1
Fixes: 024ca329bfb9 ("serial: uartps: Register own uart console and driver structures")
