3.5.7.9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Tkhai Kirill <tkhai@xxxxxxxxx>
commit cb29529ea0030e60ef1bbbf8399a43d397a51526 upstream.
If a machine has X (X < 4) sunsu ports and cmdline
option "console=ttySY" is passed, where X < Y <= 4,
than the following panic happens:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference
TPC: <sunsu_console_setup+0x78/0xe0>
RPC: <sunsu_console_setup+0x74/0xe0>
I7: <register_console+0x378/0x3e0>
Call Trace:

1)Fix the panic;
2)Increment registered port number every successful
probe.
