In this case somebody should fix usb_console_setup,
because it has the following lines:

/* grab the first serial port that happens to be
connected */
serial = usb_serial_get_by_index(0);
if (serial == NULL) {
	/* no device is connected yet, sorry :( */
	err ("No USB device connected to ttyUSB0");
	return -ENODEV;
}

Thank you
