Specify the baudrate.

You said with plain &uart0 the kernel uses a wrong baud rate? That's
strange. For me it works and I think it's the intended behaviour to
dermine the baud rate setup by the bootloader and use this.

IIRC the 8250 driver defaults to 9600n8 if unspecified.

Kernel tested: 4.9.0-rc2-next-20161028-00010-g4fb44d9-dirty

Maybe you used some console= argument overriding it?

I'd prefer it this way over hard coding the baud rate.

This has the downside to depend on the alias. Not sure this is
considered modern. An alternative would be:

	stdout-path = "/soc/internal-regs/serial at 12000:115200n8";

Please don't unroll the path I'm trying to abstract elsewhere.

Like I said, the "serialX:115200n8" syntax is what all other Armada 38x
boards use:

git grep stdout-path -- arch/arm/boot/dts/ | grep armada-38
arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-385-db-ap.dts:		stdout-path = "serial1:115200n8";
arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-385-linksys.dtsi:		stdout-path =
"serial0:115200n8";
arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-388-clearfog.dts:		stdout-path =
"serial0:115200n8";
arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-388-db.dts:		stdout-path = "serial0:115200n8";
arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-388-gp.dts:		stdout-path = "serial0:115200n8";
arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-388-rd.dts:		stdout-path = "serial0:115200n8";

The alias is needed to reliably determine the tty device number and is
set "globally" in armada-38x.dtsi, so why is it a problem to rely on?

Regards,
Andreas

(maybe there even exists syntactic sugar to express this using &uart0?)
