This is the clock frequency of the UART; on our x86-based platforms this comes from the LPC clock, on Zynq-7000 it's derived from a clock in the FPGA. This is used to set struct uart_port::uartclk in the serial core, as it is for other UARTs.
This clock frequency can vary based on board design (especially on the x86 side, due to different LPC clocks) but for a given design is fixed- frequency.
Would you prefer this be documented further? I was following 8250.yaml's lead here with the simple `true`.
