Port size is changed to fix a problem - WM8505 actually had 6 uart's defined in platform data but the vt8500_ports variable was only 4. I have added devicetree port id support as well. No regression risks as the entire platform is being converted to devicetree and existing code dropped in this patchset. Patchv4 3/9 to follow.
