It's an instance id per driver, not globally, and -1 specifically means it's the only instance. From Documentation/driver-model/platform.txt: > These are concatenated, so name/id "serial"/0 indicates bus_id "serial.0", and > "serial/3" indicates bus_id "serial.3"; both would use the platform_driver > named "serial".
