Device node at /dev/tty* not getting created for uart serial driver

[Manavendra Nath Manav]

I have written a simple UART serial driver in embedded Linux running
busybox with mdev rules. I have provided .dev_name as "ttyC2C" in my driver
code.

static struct uart_driver serial_omap_reg = {
   .owner      = THIS_MODULE,
   .driver_name   = "Omap-C2C-Serial",
   .dev_name   = "ttyC2C",
   .nr      = OMAP_MAX_HSUART_PORTS,
   .cons    = NULL,
};

However the node is getting created in

./sys/devices/platform/omap_c2c_uart.0/tty/ttyC2C0
./sys/class/tty/ttyC2C0

/ # ls -l ./sys/class/tty/ttyC2C0
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     0                0 Jan  1 00:14
./sys/class/tty/ttyC2C0 ->
../../devices/platform/omap_c2c_uart.0/tty/ttyC2C0

/ # ls -l ./sys/devices/platform/omap_c2c_uart.0/tty/ttyC2C0
-r--r--r--    1 root     0             4096 Jan  1 00:14 dev
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     0                0 Jan  1 00:14 device ->
../../../omap_c2c_uart.0
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     0                0 Jan  1 00:14 power
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     0                0 Jan  1 00:14 subsystem ->
../../../../../class/tty
-rw-r--r--    1 root     0             4096 Jan  1 00:14 uevent
/ #

The mdev rules for tty are:

tty 0:5 0666
tty.* 0:0 0620

How to get device node as /dev/ttyC2C ?
