Rename Sibyte duart devices?

Devices created by udev have been named duart? instead of the common ttyS?. This is a nuisance because it requires changes to all sorts of config files such as /etc/inittab, /etc/securetty etc. to work. I suggest to kill the problem by the root by something like the below patch. Comments?

Well, there is no problem with naming your device nodes in the filesystem
however you like and the only place that only cares is the "console=" command line option. I think the root is ttyS devices should really be only used for 8250-based devices and if you plug a standard PC serial option card into one of the PCI slots, then all the hell will break loose. I might be wrong though and the issue I am referring to may have gone now.
