Subject: [59/90] sunsab: Do not set sunsab_reg.cons right before registering minors.

2.6.31-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------


From: David S. Miller <davem@...emloft.net>

[ Upstream commit 4e68e188411ea98e40309700cf0c89ad4469ac1d ]

Other Sun serial drivers do not do this, and if we keep it this way
it ends up registering all serial devices as consoles rather than
just the one which we explicitly register via sunserial_console_match()
which uses add_preferred_console().
