We should also make sure the types are generic because there are lots
of platforms that can use DT to describe devices usefully this way, and
there are types not in the ACPI spec (eg Loconet) that some apps could
do with finding.

The property should not be in any ACPI specific form or space - just
attach it directly to the tty from ACPI, DT, driver internal knowledge,
PCI id, whatever
