The syntax consists of

-The accepted name keywords for name=value pairs are
- * `baud` - accepts integer baud rate (eg. 115200) or `auto`
- * `bridge`- Similar to bridge-bdf in positional parameters.
- Used to determine the PCI bridge to access the UART device.
- Notation is xx:xx.xx <bus>:<device>.<function>
- * `clock-hz`- accepts large integers to setup UART clock frequencies.
- Do note - these values are multiplied by 16.
- * `data-bits` - integer between 5 and 8
- * `dev` - accepted values are `pci` OR `amt`. If this option
- is used to specify if the serial device is pci-based. The io_base
- cannot be specified when `dev=pci` or `dev=amt` is used.
- * `io-base` - accepts integer which specified IO base port for UART registers
- * `irq` - IRQ number to use
- * `parity` - accepted values are same as positional parameters
- * `port` - Used to specify which port the PCI serial device is located on
- Notation is xx:xx.xx <bus>:<device>.<function>
- * `reg-shift` - register shifts required to set UART registers
- * `reg-width` - register width required to set UART registers
