Michal Simek 91daae0318 serial: core: Use cons->index for preferred console registration
The reason for this patch is xilinx_uartps driver which create one dynamic
instance per IP with unique major and minor combinations. drv->nr is in
this case all the time setup to 1. That means that uport->line is all the
time setup to 0 and drv->tty_driver->name_base is doing shift in name to
for example ttyPS3.

register_console() is looping over console_cmdline array and looking for
proper name/index combination which is in our case ttyPS/3.
That's why every instance of driver needs to be registered with proper
combination of name/number (ttyPS/3). Using uport->line is doing
registration with ttyPS/0 which is wrong that's why proper console index
should be used which is in cons->index field.

Also it is visible that recording console should be done based on
information about console not about the port but in most cases numbers are
the same and xilinx_uartps is only one exception now.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
