Hi Simon,

We have tried the compatible string, but it made the ns16550 driver more
complicated.

To use the compatible string we have to add a new field in
ns16550_platdata, and change the flow of ns16550_serial_probe.
Moreover, it's totally useless for debug uart.

At present using a macro is the easiest way here.
