It's a little bit confusing, isn't it? The lines related to such interface are named as UART0_x on the carrier board schematic, the section of the schematic that contains the header is named "data uart header", and the board documentation names it explicitly as "UART 3 - /dev/ttySC3 (SCIFB1)".

I don't think there is anything we can do to make this easier for the user really, is there? :D
If we decide to add a comment to serial 3, I guess we need to be consistent and add comments for the other serial interfaces too.
If you still prefer having a comment there I'll send a v2 and patch(es) for adding comments to the other interfaces, just let me know.

Thanks,
Fab
