This difference is not related to the device tree.

The real reason is in the commit log from Miquèl, and should probably be part of the comment. Perhaps something like: /* * Connector J17 (pins X, Y, Z) exposes a number of different * features: * - UART1 (pins 24 = RX, pins 26 = TX), see armada-3720-db.dts for an * example on how to enable UART1. Beware that the signals are 1.8V * TTL. * - SPIxyz * - I2Cxyz */ Otherwise, it's not clear at all why you don't just enable UART1. Or perhaps I misunderstood Miquèl's commit log ? Best regards, Thomas

Ok, I reused the 'dash' presentation to be later extended. See v2 coming soon.

Fill ESPRESSObin uart0 node with pinctrl information like in the Armada-3720-DB device tree (which uses the same node). Also explain how to enable the second UART port available on the headers. This second port is not enabled by default because both headers are dedicated to expose general purpose pins and remapping some of them to use the second UART would break existing users.
