[Xen-devel] [RFC 01/24] xen/char: dt-uart: Allow the user to give a path to the node



On some board, there is no alias to the UART. To avoid modification in
the device tree, dt-uart should also search device by path.

To distinguish an alias from a path, dt-uart will check the first character.
If it's a / then it's path, otherwise it's an alias.
