Hmm actually I take it back, this is breaking compability for booting
with old .dtb for smc91x on 2430sdp and 8250 on zoom3. In those cases
these devices would now refuse to probe because of the missing
timings because of the extra checks in the GPMC code.

However, these two boards are only used in three automated build and
boot test systems AFAIK. And almost certainly they are using appended
dtb anyways because of the lack of support for them in current
u-boot.

For reference, the .dts files with missing timings were smc91x on
omap2430-sdp.dts 8250 in omap-zoom-common.dtsi. So the dependencies
are:

b5399ea8453a ("ARM: dts: Add GPMC timings for omap zoom serial port")
1bb37404397d ("ARM: dts: Add smc91x GPMC configuration for 2430sdp")
