There was a large patch applied in 2.5.70 to the tty layer that has broken registration of tty devices.
The tty drivers I maintain get a success return value from tty_register_driver() and dynamic major/minor device numbers are assigned, but it does not appear to actually create the char devices. (They do not show up in proc/devices).
I'm trying to dig through this and understand the purpose of the changes, but it might be more informative if the person responsible for the patch would explain the purpose and what modification of tty drivers are necessary to work with the changes.
