dm: serial: Add driver model support for ns16550
Add driver model support so that ns16550 can support operation both with and without driver model. The driver needs a clock frequency so cannot stand alone unfortunately. The clock frequency must be provided by a separate driver. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>

+NS16550 UART
+
+This UART driver supports many chip variants and is used in mamy SoCs.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: "ns16550" or "nvidia,tegra20-uart"
+- reg: start address and size of registers
+- reg-shift: shift value indicating register size: 0=byte, 1=16bit,2=32bit etc.
+- clock-frequency: input clock frequency for the UART (used to calculate the
+ baud rate divisor)
