We want to fix the serial core port DEVNAME to use a port id of the hardware specific controller port instance instead of the port->line. For example, the 8250 driver sets up a number of serial8250 ports initially that can be inherited by the hardware specific driver. At that the port->line no longer decribes the port's relation to the serial core controller instance. Let's fix the issue by assigning port->port_id for each serial core controller port instance.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
