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.
