Component Type: kbuild config

Description: Install as device ttyATn instead of ttySn

More info: Say Y here if you wish to have the internal AT91 UARTs appear as /dev/ttyATn (major 204, minor starting at 154) instead of the normal /dev/ttySn (major 4, minor starting at 64). This is necessary if you also want other UARTs, such as external 8250/16C550 compatible UARTs. The ttySn nodes are legally reserved for the 8250 serial driver but are often misused by other serial drivers. To use this, you should create suitable ttyATn device nodes in /dev/, and pass "console=ttyATn" to the kernel. Say Y if you have an external 8250/16C550 UART. If unsure, say N.
