The VAR-SOM-MX8MP does not include an onboard console connector. The
debug UART is provided on the Symphony carrier board, and customers may
choose to expose any UART controller on their own carrier designs.

Since UART2 is not populated on the SOM, drop the UART2 node from the
SOM device tree.

This change is OK, but you need a patch for
imx8mp-var-som-symphony.dts to describe UART2, right?

Otherwise, people using imx8mp-var-som-symphony.dts will lose the console.

The same applies to other patches of this series.
