Hey Shawn, good progress. Comments below.
Also, once you've got this sorted out, you'll need to break the
drivers/of/ bits out into a separate patch so I can apply it
separately.

Instead of calling this from board code. You can add the call
directly to the bottom of unflatten_device_tree() in drivers/of/fdt.c

Some LinuxDoc documentation on the meaning of these structures would
be helpful. I'm not convinced that a two level lookup table is really
necessary. A flat table containing alias, device_node pointer, and
possibly decoded devname and id is probably sufficient to get started.
Also, I think it will still be useful to store a pointer to the
actual alias name in the alias_devid record.

There is actually little point in decoding an alias to the device
name. It is more useful to decode alias to the device_node pointer
which can be found with of_find_node_by_path(). I'd like to have a
lookup table generated which contains {const char *alias_name,
device_node *np} pairs. It would also be useful for that table to
decode the 'id' from the end of the alias name when available. Then,
given an alias stem and id (like imxuart and 2) the code could match
it to alias imxuart0 and look up the device_node associated with (I
could see this used by console setup code). Alternately, driver probe
code could use its device_node pointer to lookup its alias, and if no
alias exists, then use the table to find an unused id (and possibly
even add an entry to the table when it allocates an id).

Even private static functions should have a prefix consistent with the
file. In this case, all the functions should probably be something in
the form "of_alias_*()"

Just to be pendantic: simple_strtoul() :-)

Use LinuxDoc format for documentation blocks.

Like the chosen node, it is useful to keep around a reference to the
aliases node. There is other code that will use it that I hope to
merge soon. You can add a global of_aliases pointer and initialized
it in unflatten_device_tree()

The function hasn't done anything that needs unwinding yet. Just
return immediately.

A "for_each_property()" macro would be useful to have and use here.
Can you add one to include/linux/of.h?

Rather than a static sized string, I'd like this to be the actual size
of the string. You can do this by making the name the last element of
the list and giving it a [0] length. Then when memory is kzalloced
for it, the size of the devname can be added to the end:
struct alias_devname {
struct list_head link;
const char *alias;
struct device_node *node;
int alias_id;
char alias_stem[0];
};

Skipping the 'name' property is good, but I don't think you need to
check the value. You should also skip the "phandle" property.

Going to a single level lookup table will certainly simplify this function.
