It's not a device naming thing, but it is a ... :)

Okay, here's another uninformed stab in the dark:

diff --git a/drivers/tty/n_gsm.c b/drivers/tty/n_gsm.c
index 1f3aba607cd51..ddf00f6a4141d 100644
--- a/drivers/tty/n_gsm.c
+++ b/drivers/tty/n_gsm.c
@@ -3629,6 +3629,10 @@ static int gsmld_open(struct tty_struct *tty)
        if (tty->ops->write == NULL)
                return -EINVAL;

+       /* The GSM line discipline does not support binding to console */
+       if (tty->driver->type == TTY_DRIVER_TYPE_CONSOLE)
+               return -EINVAL;
+
        /* Attach our ldisc data */
        gsm = gsm_alloc_mux();
        if (gsm == NULL)

This seems to allow for the real serial devices (TTY_DRIVER_TYPE_SERIAL)
suggested by Daniel.
