Hi,

this series rebrands the Xilinx PS UART driver as Cadence UART and
documents its DT bindings (+ some clean up along the way).

The rebranding goes as far as reasonable. Things like file name, kconfig
symbols and other things with user space impact are left as is. Please
refer to the discussion in the RFC threads[1-2] for more details.

Similar the DT binding has been extended. In addition to the new and
preferred Cadence binding, the current xuartps binding is maintained.
Though, only the Cadence names for clock-names are documented.

v2:
 - no changes regarding the patches
 - fixed (I sincerely hope) email recipients

Changes from the latest RFC:
 - squashed function/symbol renaming into 'tty: xuartps: Rebrand driver
   as Cadence UART'
 - Revised the commit message of 'tty: xuartps: Don't write IRQ disable
   register to enable interrupts' (was 'tty: xuartps: Remove bogus
   comment and register write'
One more thing. I was thinking this is based on my 3 patches I have
already sent to mainline. But as I see they are not applied yet.

I think my cleanup patch covers these changes as well. I'll see if it
makes sense to separate out this patch.

This is obsolete with the rebranding, IMHO.

I can add this to this series.
