If the order of UART nodes is changed in the device tree, then tty dev devices are attached to different serial ports causing the console to be directed to a different physical serial port. The "serial" aliases in the device tree should prevent this. This patch ensures that the UART driver creates tty devices that honour these aliases if a device tree is present.
