Ah.  I'd originally coded it as an ||   -- but then Arnd suggested I
condense it further by using of_match_node() -- which was a good idea,
but that is where it accidentally changed to && without me catching it.
Thanks for finding this, and sorry for the debug adventure (I know
vanishing uarts isn't fun).
