Update compatible and reg-shift in device tree binding.

Has this change been submitted to and accepted by the Linux kernel?
That's where the official DT binding documents are stored. Honestly I
think we should remove the copies in U-Boot to avoid confusion and
forking.

The content of the change looks reasonable at a quick glance.


These changes actually came from Linux kernel. They are scattered in
several files. I included only those are prevalent to u-boot.

8250.txt
- compatible : one of:
     - "ns8250"
...

omap_serial.txt
- compatible : should be "ti,omap2-uart" for OMAP2 controllers
...

snps-dw-apb-uart.txt
- compatible : "snps,dw-apb-uart"
- reg-shift : quantity to shift the register offsets by.  If this
property is not present then the register offsets are not shifted.

If we are going to have DT binding definitions in U-Boot, we should at least keep the directory structure, filenames, and file content identical to the bindings in the Linux kernel.
