Subject: [PATCH v2] tty: xilinx_uartps: Fix missing id assignment to the console

From: Shubhrajyoti Datta <shubhrajyoti.datta@...inx.com>

When serial console has been assigned to ttyPS1 (which is serial1 alias)
console index is not updated property and pointing to index -1 (statically
initialized) which ends up in situation where nothing has been printed on
the port.

The commit 18cc7ac8a28e ("Revert "serial: uartps: Register own uart console
and driver structures"") didn't contain this line which was removed by
accident.

Changes in v2:
- Do better commit description
- Origin subject was "tty: xilinx_uartps: Add the id to the console"

Greg: Would be good if you can take this patch to 5.7 and also to stable
trees.
