[PATCH] serial: core: Add sysfs links for serial core port instances for ttys

[Tony Lindgren <tony@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Let's allow the userspace to find out the tty name for a serial core
controller id if a tty exists. This can be done with:

$ grep DEVNAME /sys/bus/serial-base/devices/port*/tty/uevent
/sys/bus/serial-base/devices/port.00:04.0/tty/uevent:DEVNAME=ttyS0
/sys/bus/serial-base/devices/port.serial8250.1/tty/uevent:DEVNAME=ttyS1
/sys/bus/serial-base/devices/port.serial8250.2/tty/uevent:DEVNAME=ttyS2
/sys/bus/serial-base/devices/port.serial8250.3/tty/uevent:DEVNAME=ttyS3

And with this, we can add /dev/serial/by-id symlinks to the serial port
device instances so we can start using serial core port addressing in
addition to the legacy ttyS naming.

The naming we can use is dev_name:0.0 where 0.0 are the serial core
controller id and port id, so for the ttyS0 example above the naming
would be 00:04.0:0.0.
