Several Operating Systems are already using device property names for 16550-compatible UARTs in global namespace. Adding riscv- prefix will make multiple software components to change. DSD guide also allows to continue to use the same property names which are already in use. So, remove riscv-uart prefix requirement for UART devices. Also, add reg-offset property which is also currently used by OS drivers. Signed-off-by: Sunil V L <[email protected]>
