I just noticed that the length here should be inclusive, i.e. 0x100 not
0xff. This is different from the way we define resources in Linux.

Grrr.  Now I'm getting frustrated.  I'm trying to boot without
earlyprintk.  Evidently, something is wrong with the above, because the
device boots all the way up (blinky lights come on), but I get no
messages after the usual "Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the
kernel."

Here's my most recent attempt:

        serial at f1012000 {
                device_type = "serial";
                compatible = "ns16550a";
                reg = <0xf1012000 0x100>; /*phys addr*/
                virt-reg = <0xfed12000>;  /*virt addr*/
                reg-shift = <2>;
                reg-io-width = <1>;
                interrupts = <33>;
                current-speed = <115200>;
                interrupt-parent = <&intc>;
                clock-frequency = <200000000>;
        };

I've looked at what is done in the powerpc dt's, but, no luck.  When
earlyprintk is enabled, I see no error messages, just:

bootconsole [earlycon0] enabled
debug: skip boot console de-registration.
...
Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 2 ports, IRQ sharing disabled

Any pointers?

dunno if that helps a lot but the following was working for me with my 
linkstation:

        serial0: serial at f1012000 {
                cell-index = <0>;
                device_type = "serial";
                compatible = "ns16550a";
                reg = <0xf1012000 0x20>;
                reg-shift = <2>;
                clock-frequency = <200000000>;
                interrupts = <33>;
        };
