[PATCH 1/2] arm: dts: sun8i: add uart1 node to reference design tablet

[Icenowy Zheng]

In the A23/A33 tablet reference design, the UART1 at PG is used to
connect to the UART-connected bluetooth.

Add a disabled uart1 node for it in the reference design tablet dtsi,
contains the pinctrl info.

If a tablet uses the UART bluetooth, simply set the status of this node
to "okay".

[PATCH 2/2] arm: dts: sun8i: reuse the uart1 node of iNet D978 rev2 board

[Icenowy Zheng]

As a uart1 node is added into sun8i-reference-design-tablet.dtsi, simply
use it in iNet D978 rev2 device tree.

I'd like to see more consolidation before that change is needed. If we
find more boards using that, it will make sense, but for a single
board it's not worth it.

Still, I'm not fond of creating a default on such a low count sample
of (out-of-tree) DTs. Support and enable the bluetooth on more boards,
and then consolidate.

If your plan is to enable all the combinations possible accross the Q8
tablets and let the bootloader/user figure it all out, then it's not
going to happen, sorry.
