+description:
+ This document lists a set of generic properties for describing UARTs in a
+ device tree. Whether these properties apply to a particular device depends
+ on the DT bindings for the actual device.
+
+ Each enabled UART may have an optional "serialN" alias in the "aliases" node,
+ where N is the port number (non-negative decimal integer) as printed on the
+ label next to the physical port.

+ (wired and enabled by pinmux configuration). This depends on both the
+ UART hardware and the board wiring.

+ This should only be present if the maximum is less than the slave
+ device can support. For example, a particular board has some
+ signal quality issue or the host processor can't support higher
+ baud rates.

+ description: |
+ The current baud rate the device operates at.
+ This should only be present in case a driver has no chance to know
+ the baud rate of the slave device.
+ Examples:
+ * device supports auto-baud
+ * the rate is setup by a bootloader and there is no way to reset
+ the device
+ * device baud rate is configured by its firmware but there is no
+ way to request the actual settings
