        If you boot with e.g. xencons=tty3, then tty1/tty2 aren't valid
devices.

        Attached patch makes it always create valid devices on tty1-tty63, but
all but the one specified by xencons are dummy devices.

Is your change to ttyS correct for anything other than ttyS0? Looks like you'd incorrectly bind on ttyS0.

Also I see you made a predicate more complicated which is repeated many times. Could you hide it behind a suitably named macro? You may need to make it more complicated still to fix ttyS case...
