In some cases UART attached devices which require an in kernel driver,
e.g. UART attached Bluetooth HCIs are described in the ACPI tables
by an ACPI device with a broken or missing UartSerialBusV2() resource.
This causes the kernel to create a /dev/ttyS# char-device for the UART
instead of creating an in kernel serdev-controller + serdev-device pair
for the in kernel driver.
The quirk handling in acpi_quirk_skip_serdev_enumeration() makes the kernel
create a serdev-controller device for these UARTs instead of a /dev/ttyS#.
Instantiating the actual serdev-device to bind to is up to pdx86 code,
so far this was handled by the x86-android-tablets code. But since
commit b286f4e87e32 ("serial: core: Move tty and serdev to be children of
serial core port device") the serdev-controller device has moved in the
device hierarchy from (e.g.) /sys/devices/pci0000:00/8086228A:00/serial0 to
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/8086228A:00/8086228A:00:0/8086228A:00:0.0/serial0 .
This makes this a bit trickier to do and another driver is in the works
which will also need this functionality.
Add a new helper to get the serdev-controller device, so that the new
code for this can be shared.
