+NVIDIA Tegra20/Tegra30 high speed (DMA based) UART controller driver.

+- compatible : should be "nvidia,tegra30-hsuart", "nvidia,tegra20-hsuart".
+- reg: Should contain UART controller registers location and length.
+- interrupts: Should contain UART controller interrupts.

+Note: Each port should have an alias correctly numbered in "aliases" node.
