I have retested this (with more recent versions than earlier).

I confirm that u-boot correctly deals with aliases and
chosen/stdout-path. Using linear aliases and assigning stdout to serial1
works.

I also confirm that having ttyPS1 without having ttyPS0 works (only
tested with this patch applied). I questioned this earlier.

So it seems that the need for reversing these aliases is less strong
now. If I remember correctly, Jan Kiszka was also using reversed
aliases, but I don't know why.

Helmut
