24 + This is the highest numbered device created in /dev. You will actually have
25 + NR_TTY_DEVICES+1 devices in /dev. The default is 63, which will result in
26 + 64 /dev entries. The lowest number you can set is 11, anything below that,
27 + and it will default to 11. 63 is also the upper limit so we don't overrun
28 + the serial consoles.
