From: Shubhrajyoti Datta <shubhrajyoti.datta@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ab262666018de6f4e206b021386b93ed0c164316 ] Let kernel to find out major number dynamically for the first device and then reuse it for other instances. This fixes the issue that each uart is registered with a different major number.
