dt: document the of_serial bindings

The of_serial bindings can be used to register a number of serial
devices.  Document this binding with all of the others.

* UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter)
Required properties:
- compatible : one of:
- "ns8250"
- "ns16450"
- "ns16550a"
- "ns16550"
- "ns16750"
- "ns16850"
- "nvidia,tegra250-uart"
- "ibm,qpace-nwp-serial"
- "serial" if the port type is unknown.
- reg : offset and length of the register set for the device.
- interrupts : should contain uart interrupt.
- clock-frequency : the input clock frequency for the UART.
Optional properties:
- current-speed : the current active speed of the UART.
- reg-offset : offset to apply to the mapbase from the start of the registers.
- reg-shift : quantity to shift the register offsets by.
- used-by-rtas : set to indicate that the port is in use by the OpenFirmware
RTAS and should not be registered.
Example:
uart@80230000 {
compatible = "ns8250";
reg = <0x80230000 0x100>;
clock-frequency = <3686400>;
interrupts = <10>;
reg-shift = <2>;
};
