virtio: console: Associate each port with a char device
The char device will be used as an interface by applications on the guest to communicate with apps on the host. The devices created are placed in /dev/vportNpn where N is the virtio-console device number and n is the port number for that device. One dynamic major device number is allocated for each device and minor numbers are allocated for the ports contained within that device. The file operation for the char devs will be added in the following commits. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
