Re: lanana: Add major/minor entries for PPC QE UART devices

Another option is to use 46..49 for UARTs #0..3,
and 192..195 for UARTs #4..7.
Or, perhaps better, use 46..49 for #0..3, and
192..199 for #0..7, handling the duplication in
the driver; and deprecate the old range.

That sounds like more hassle than it's worth. The discontinuous range may be annoying, but it isn't really a huge amount of code.

Yeah. My suggestion would allow to get rid of that
extra code some day, though (but sure, is that worth
it?)
