As far as I know they were never used and certainly aren't now. We did
once use /dev/viocons/%d, but that went away a long time ago (before the
code was in the mainline kernel). Major 229 is now used by the pSeries
Hypervisor consoles (/dev/hvc%d) and hopefully soon by a new iSeries
hypervisor console with the same name.
Since that still isn't in devices.txt...
/dev/ttyHV%d would match the standard pattern better.
(assuming you only need 3-digit numbers)
