Add dts for ARMv8 based broadband SoC BCM4912. bcm4912.dtsi is the

See comment below for the ubus node.

This does not quite make sense, as I doubt that this part of the bus is 64-bit capable, rather, I would expect to find both #address-cells and #size-cells to be set to 1 and ... (see below)

+ ranges = <0x0 0x0 0x0 0xff800000 0x0 0x800000>;
+
+ uart0: serial@12000 {
+ compatible = "arm,pl011", "arm,primecell";
+ reg = <0x0 0x12000 0x0 0x1000>;

... have this become simply:

reg = <0x12000 0x1000>:

which also looks awfully big for an UART block, an entire 4KB worth of register space?
