+* NS16550 UART
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : "ns16550_serial"

Hiroki,

as stated in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/README, barebox uses the same bindings as "the kernel" which is Linux I guess. Linux already has
a binding for ns16550 compatible serial.

I suggest to use that binding as a reference although it is not
documented but needs to be stripped from its source code.

+- reg : offset and length of the register set for the device.
+
+
+Optional properties:
+- clock-frequency : the input clock frequency for the UART.
+- reg-shift : quantity to shift the register offsets by.  If this property is
+  not present then the register offsets are not shifted.
+- reg-io-width : the size (in bytes) of the IO accesses that should be
+  performed on the device.  If this property is not present then single byte
+  accesses are used.
+- disable-fifo :
+	0: enable tx/rx fifo (default value)
+	1: disable tx/rx fifo
+- console-stdin : activate stdin on this console.
+- console-stdout : activate stdout on this console.
+- console-stderr : activate stderr on this console.

ePAPR specification already defines stdout-path and stdin-path.
Moreover, barebox has of_device_is_stdout_path to check if a device is
referenced by stdout-path property.
