I suppose we could keep the same serial port name using serial6 and serial7 in
the aliases. However, moving to DT will get rid of all other serial ports, so
we would be left with ttySC6 and ttySC7, without ttySC0 to ttySC5. I'm not
sure if I like that.

(CC'ing Simon and Magnus to get their opinion on the subject)

I'll fix that. If no other change is required I won't repost the patch before
sending the pull request.
