 UART1 is connected to the bluetooth part of RTL8723BS WiFi/BT combo card
 on iNet D978 Rev2 board.

 Enable the UART1 to make it possible to use the modified hciattach by
 Realtek to drive the BT part of RTL8723BS.

I guess you could fold that patch into the previous one.

Is there any other UART in the system?
serial0 is defined in sun8i-reference-design-tablet.dtsi, as r_uart.
If your board does not have r_uart pads, then the right thing to do
would be to disable it. You can then have uart1 as serial0.

AFAIK Linux requires a console, but that console can be simplefb.

The alias is not supposed to be about the controller index, but the
index in the board, meaning that if you only have a single UART, that
would be serial0.

Thanks!
