   ### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
   
   Currently, the PL011 UART driver is not very flexible. All boards that use 
it must use the common Kconfig options which limit you to 3 UART interfaces. 
All code is handled within the driver, and expects that each UART interface has 
its own unique interrupt.
   
   This does not apply to the Pi4B, which has 5 PL011 UART interfaces and they 
all share one common interrupt handler. In order to use the PL011 driver with 
the Pi4B, this driver needs to be modified.
   
   ### Describe the solution you'd like
   
   Modify the PL011 UART driver so that individual boards can use the C API to:
   - Register as many UARTs as they need
   - Control interrupt registration
   - Define their own Kconfig options for selecting active UART 
interfaces/options
   
   ### Describe alternatives you've considered
