[PATCH v2 3/3] 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 ttyS style name for a serial
core port device if a tty exists. This can be done with:

$ grep DEVNAME /sys/bus/serial-base/devices/*/tty/uevent
/sys/bus/serial-base/devices/00:04:0.0/tty/uevent:DEVNAME=ttyS0
/sys/bus/serial-base/devices/serial8250:0.1/tty/uevent:DEVNAME=ttyS1
/sys/bus/serial-base/devices/serial8250:0.2/tty/uevent:DEVNAME=ttyS2
/sys/bus/serial-base/devices/serial8250:0.3/tty/uevent:DEVNAME=ttyS3

With this change, we can add /dev/serial/by-id symlinks for the serial
core port device instances. This allows using hardware based port
addressing in addition to the legacy ttyS style naming.

The serial core port naming is DEVNAME:0.0, such as the 00:04:0.0 above.
The 0.0 above are serial core controller id and port id. The port id and
controller id are typically both zero unless the serial port hardware
controller has multiple controllers or ports.
