Some usb-serial devices (e.g. certain Edgeport models) have more than
one serial port on the same USB device/interface.
Currently the only way to distinguish these ports in userspace is by
their minor device number: the driver makes them consecutive and in
stable order.
However, for the purpose of stable naming with udev this is
insufficient: when udev handles the ADD event for one of the ports it
doesn't know what minor number the other one has.
To make stable naming easier, export the port number via sysfs.

drivers/usb/serial/bus.c: In function usb_serial_bus_deregister:
drivers/usb/serial/bus.c:185:
warning: passing argument 1 of free_dynids from incompatible pointer type
Above build warning comes when CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n because argument of
free_dynids() in serial/bus.c is a struct usb_serial_driver, not a
struct usb_driver. This is not a runtime bug, because the function
is an empty stub and never dereferences the passed pointer anyway.

Thanks to Johannes Hölzl <johannes.hoelzl@gmx.de> for fixing a few
things and getting it all working properly.
This adds support for dynamic usb ids to the usb serial core. The file
"new_id" will show up under the usb serial driver, not the usb driver
associated with the usb-serial driver (yeah, it can be a bit confusing
at first glance...)
This patch also modifies the USB core to allow the usb-serial core to
reuse much of the dynamic id logic.

USB serial outside of the kernel tree can not build properly due to
usb-serial.h being buried down in the source tree. This patch moves the
location of the file to include/linux/usb and fixes up all of the usb
serial drivers to handle the move properly.

This fixes up a lot of problems in sysfs with some of the usb serial
drivers, they had incorrect driver names. Also saves a tiny ammount
of memory.

Don't duplicate something that's already in struct driver.

I'm tired of trying to explain why a "device_type" is really a driver.
This better describes exactly what this structure is.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
