At probe, the uart driver tries to get an id from a device tree alias.
When no alias was specified, the driver would return an error and probing
would fail.
Providing an alias for registering a serial device should not be mandatory.
If the device tree does not specify an alias, provide an id from a reserved
range so that the probing can continue.
