Hi,

this is the initial version before next step which is move
uart_register_driver to probe function.
I was able to get rid of static array with uart_port structures.
It was wired with console which is also fixed.
And the next step is the most complicated one handle .nr in uart_driver
structure in more generic way.

I am sending these patches as v1. RFC was sent in past
(https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-serial/msg27106.html)
and I promised to wait till Geert's
"serial: xuartps: Fix out-of-bounds access through DT
alias" (sha1: e7d75e18d0fc3f7193b65282b651f980c778d935) is applied.

Thanks,
Michal
