[PATCH] serial: pl011: honour serial aliases in device tree

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



If the order of UART nodes is changed in the device tree, then tty dev
devices are attached to different serial ports causing the console to
be directed to a different physical serial port. The "serial" aliases
in the device tree should prevent this.

This patch ensures that the UART driver creates tty devices that
honour these aliases if a device tree is present.
