Hiroki,

as stated in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/README, barebox uses the 
same bindings as "the kernel" which is Linux I guess. Linux already has
a binding for ns16550 compatible serial.

I suggest to use that binding as a reference although it is not
documented but needs to be stripped from its source code.

ePAPR specification already defines stdout-path and stdin-path.
Moreover, barebox has of_device_is_stdout_path to check if a device is
referenced by stdout-path property.
