NAK from me until the problem is resolved adequately.

Already the patch 1/4 causes an unacceptable reassignment of ttySx 
targets. This is going to break people's cmdline console setups so you 
need to find a better way.

Before any of these patches:

[    0.000000] Command line: console=ttyS0,115200n8 8250.nr_uarts=4
[    0.021031] Kernel command line: console=ttyS0,115200n8 8250.nr_uarts=4
[    0.441924] printk: console [ttyS0] enabled
[    2.243165] printk: console [ttyS0] disabled
[    2.245682] dw-apb-uart.6: ttyS0 at MMIO 0x4010006000 (irq = 33, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A
[    4.010237] printk: console [ttyS0] enabled
[    5.933887] dw-apb-uart.7: ttyS1 at MMIO 0x4010007000 (irq = 16, base_baud = 6250000) is a 16550A
[    5.952829] dw-apb-uart.8: ttyS2 at MMIO 0x4010008000 (irq = 17, base_baud = 6250000) is a 16550A

After 1/4 ttyS0 is no longer the same:

[    0.000000] Command line: console=ttyS0,115200n8 8250.nr_uarts=4
[    0.021023] Kernel command line: console=ttyS0,115200n8 8250.nr_uarts=4
[    0.441872] printk: console [ttyS0] enabled
[    2.233584] dw-apb-uart.6: ttyS4 at MMIO 0x4010006000 (irq = 33, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A
[    2.241955] dw-apb-uart.7: ttyS5 at MMIO 0x4010007000 (irq = 16, base_baud = 6250000) is a 16550A
[    2.249804] dw-apb-uart.8: ttyS6 at MMIO 0x4010008000 (irq = 17, base_baud = 6250000) is a 16550A
