This same change is also needed in:

  qcom-ipq8064.dtsi
  qcom-msm8960.dtsi
  qcom-apq8084.dtsi
  qcom-apq8064.dtsi
  qcom-msm8660.dtsi

but I did not want to just blindly apply those changes without testing.
Is there only one uart on each of these?

If not, it would be better to put the aliases in the board specific file,
pointing to whichever ports are in use, in the order that makes sense
for that board.
Good point, thanks for bringing it up.

Your comment made me verify that the board dts files can override the
aliases from the included .dtsi.  So not a problem to have a default
set of aliases in the .dtsi files.
I would think it's better to keep them in the per-board file out of
principle though.
