Because Russell expressed unhappiness at that code existing. So this
is an alternative method to do same thing with ACPI.

If the "arm,sbsa-uart" id was added to drivers/of/platform.c as an
AMBA id then the same could be done for DT as well.

Ultimately this patch is optional depending on maintainers opinion!
