+* ARM SBSA defined generic UART
+This UART uses a subset of the PL011 registers and consequently lives
+in the PL011 driver. It's baudrate and other communication parameters
+cannot be adjusted at runtime, so it lacks a clock specifier here.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: must be "arm,sbsa-uart"
+- reg: exactly one register range
+- interrupts: exactly one interrupt specifier
+- current-speed: the (fixed) baud rate set by the firmware
