v2, changes from v1:
- The patch this documents was updated to make the serialN alias
optional instead of required.
Update devicetree binding for msm_serial to reflect msm_serial_probe()
getting line id from the serial alias.

+"aliases" node, according to serialN format, where N is the port number
+(non-negative decimal integer). If the aliases are not present then
