[PATCH] uml: console locking commentary and code cleanup
Remove the last vestiges of devfs from console registration. Change the name
of the function, plus remove a couple of unused fields from the line_driver
structure.
struct lines is no longer needed, all traces of it are gone.
The only way that I can see to mark a structure as being almost-const is to
individually const the fields. This is the case for the line_driver
structure, which has only one modifiable field - a list_head in a
sub-structure.
