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.
