This is not such a good change. As the comment says in uart_subr.c, it's
just a default. There's nothing PC specific about it. It's the the most
common case and therefore a sensible default.

Now, if it makes sense to have MD specific defaults and not MI defaults,
then it makes sense to have ALL the defaults set in MD code and none in
MI code (or if they are set in MI code, they should be set before MD
defaults can be set to override the MI defaults).

What really needs to be done is add support for the DT tag, so that you
can set the device type in the environment....
