Add APB DMA requestor and serial aliases for serial controller.
There will be two serial driver i.e. 8250 based simple serial driver

The simple serial driver get enabled with compatible "nvidia,tegra114-uart",
"nvidia,tegra20-uart" and APB DMA based driver will get enabled with
compatible "nvidia,tegra114-hsuart", "nvidia,tegra30-hsuart".

Again, that text says you want either of:
compatible = "nvidia,tegra114-uart", "nvidia,tegra20-uart";
compatible = "nvidia,tegra114-hsuart", "nvidia,tegra30-hsuart";
(note Tegra20-vs-Tegra30 in the second compatible value)
Why isn't it instead:
compatible = "nvidia,tegra114-uart", "nvidia,tegra20-uart";
compatible = "nvidia,tegra114-hsuart", "nvidia,tegra20-hsuart";
(note both second compatible values say Tegra20)
I assume this is a typo.
I suppose I can fix this up when I apply it to avoid a resend, assuming
it's wrong.
Since I haven't seen a reply to this, when I apply this, I'm going to
change the comment I quoted above to match the values I wrote above
under "why isn't it instead:".
Stephen,
Sorry, I missed your comment to reply.
I mean was that compatible should be
compatible = "nvidia,tegra114-uart", "nvidia,tegra20-uart";
compatible = "nvidia,tegra114-hsuart", "nvidia,tegra30-hsuart";
not
compatible = "nvidia,tegra114-uart", "nvidia,tegra20-uart";
compatible = "nvidia,tegra114-hsuart", "nvidia,tegra20-hsuart";
The reason is that, tegra30 has the clock divider in the CAR register
set and it is 15.1 which gives more precise baudrate. tegra20 does not
have the same.
Tegra114 also have the clock divider in the CAR register.
All SoCs UART support 16.0 clock divider inside the uart controller as
DLL/DLM.
Simple uart driver use the uart clock divider and it is fine here.
High speed uart driver uses the car register driver for better
flexibility and better resolution.
