Even though they will be the same for all boards, i2c and uart aliases
are supposed to live in the individual board files, to not create
aliases for disabled nodes.
So move the newly added aliases for rk3528 over to the Radxa E20C board,
which is the only rk3528 board right now.

This sounds like something tooling should be able to handle, e.g. U-Boot
use fdtgrep to filter out nodes (and aliases) for the FDT used by early
boot phases.
Maybe DTC just need a feature to remove aliases to disabled nodes?
Also how should overlays handle aliases? Are all overlays suppose to add
aliases for the add-on devices they may enable?
And how should we handle boards with e.g. a 40-pin header where pins
could be muxed to multiple functions. Is it the overlays responsibility
to remove and replace aliases? E.g. if pins can mux between i2c1 and
uart3, and i2c1 was enabled by default.

Jonas

personally I don't see the issue with an i2c alias pointing to a disabled
i2c controller, but it does seem to violate some dt convention.
At least people got adamant this time about the aliases moving into the
board file [0].

I guess we'll cross those bridge together with the bigger round of
dt-people when the first overlay appears ;-) .
