[PATCH] Register tty_devclass before use

From: Russell King (rmk@arm.linux.org.uk)

Hi,

The following patch (against vanilla 2.5.64) registers the tty devclass
with sysfs before any drivers can use it - sysfs requires structures to
be registered before use.

The patch applies to bk-curr with offset.
