From a61c2d78ce61e67baf27c43f6721db87a27ac762 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Jones Date: Sat, 7 Jan 2006 23:18:19 +0000 Subject: [SERIAL] Make the number of UARTs registered configurable. Also add a nr_uarts module option to the 8250 code to override this, up to a maximum of CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS This should appease people who complain about a proliferation of /dev/ttyS & /sysfs nodes whilst at the same time allowing a single kernel image to support the rarer occasions of lots of devices.
