-* Atmel Universal Synchronous Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (USART)
-
-Required properties for USART:
-- compatible: Should be one of the following:
-	- "atmel,at91rm9200-usart"
-	- "atmel,at91sam9260-usart"
-	- "microchip,sam9x60-usart"
-	- "atmel,at91rm9200-dbgu", "atmel,at91rm9200-usart"
-	- "atmel,at91sam9260-dbgu", "atmel,at91sam9260-usart"
-	- "microchip,sam9x60-dbgu", "microchip,sam9x60-usart"
-- reg: Should contain registers location and length
-- interrupts: Should contain interrupt
-- clock-names: tuple listing input clock names.
-	Required elements: "usart"
-- clocks: phandles to input clocks.
-
-Required properties for USART in SPI mode:
-- #size-cells      : Must be <0>
-- #address-cells   : Must be <1>
-- cs-gpios: chipselects (internal cs not supported)
-- atmel,usart-mode : Must be <AT91_USART_MODE_SPI> (found in dt-bindings/mfd/at91-usart.h)
-
-Optional properties in serial and SPI mode:
-- dma bindings for dma transfer:
-	- dmas: DMA specifier, consisting of a phandle to DMA controller node,
-		memory peripheral interface and USART DMA channel ID, FIFO configuration.
-		The order of DMA channels is fixed. The first DMA channel must be TX
-		associated channel and the second one must be RX associated channel.
-		Refer to dma.txt and atmel-dma.txt for details.
-	- dma-names: "tx" for TX channel.
-		     "rx" for RX channel.
-		     The order of dma-names is also fixed. The first name must be "tx"
-		     and the second one must be "rx" as in the examples below.
-
-Optional properties in serial mode:
-- atmel,use-dma-rx: use of PDC or DMA for receiving data
-- atmel,use-dma-tx: use of PDC or DMA for transmitting data
-- {rts,cts,dtr,dsr,rng,dcd}-gpios: specify a GPIO for RTS/CTS/DTR/DSR/RI/DCD line respectively.
-  It will use specified PIO instead of the peripheral function pin for the USART feature.
-  If unsure, don't specify this property.
-- atmel,fifo-size: maximum number of data the RX and TX FIFOs can store for FIFO
-  capable USARTs.
-- rs485-rts-delay, rs485-rx-during-tx, linux,rs485-enabled-at-boot-time: see rs485.txt

-		dmas = <&dma0 2 0x3>,
-		       <&dma0 2 0x204>;
-		dma-names = "tx", "rx";
-		atmel,fifo-size = <32>;
-	};
-
-- SPI mode:
-	#include <dt-bindings/mfd/at91-usart.h>
-
-	spi0: spi@f001c000 {
-		#address-cells = <1>;
-		#size-cells = <0>;
