OK, you are right. If (pdev->id < -1) and (!pdev->dev.of_node) then
the check is still needed.

You could use an ida. Some drivers use a bit map. I really don't think
this should become a complicated algorithm though. If the rule is that
either all UARTS have an alias, or no UART has an alias, then I think
the patch could be something like the following.

This combines your original patch, plus your fix patch, plus making
the aliases all or nothing. Not tested, not even compiled.

What do you think?
