[PATCH] ARM: DTS: make rpi3/4 use pl011 uart as primary

When the videocore first-stage bootloader finds 'dtoverlay=disable-bt' in the
'config.txt', asides from applying said overlay, it also disables fixed
clock for the vpu, which miniuart requires to calculate correct baudrate,
rendering it non-functional. This can be fixed by adding 'core_freq=250'
to the config, but since barebox has drivers for the pl011 full-fledged UART,
lets just make barebox use it instead.
