Then my driver will work as is (if the irq/sleep dt entries are
implemented. I can do a respin with these added, and it can use the same
DT labels as the Nokia driver does. No need for modifying the old driver
at all.

That should work.

I havent looked, but it seems to me that all we need to do is allow
serial port drivers to register a DT structure for the BT subdevice
attached to them when they probe, if such a function doesnt already exist.

I dont see what other glue we would need - perhaps the USB ones might
need a callback to allow them to send USB packets to control the wakeup
lines etc.
