This change disables the DMA support (RX/TX) on the NXP's fsl_lpuart
driver - the PIO mode is used instead. This change is necessary for better
robustness of BK4's device use cases with many potentially interrupted
short serial transfers.

Without it the driver hangs when some distortion happens on UART lines.

Changes for v2:
- Use /delete-property/dma-names; instead of dma-names = "","";

Subject prefix should be 'ARM: dts: ...'.  I fixed it up and applied the
patch.
