[PATCH V2 2/5] arm64: dts: ti: k3-j721e*: Cleanup disabled nodes at SoC dtsi level

The device tree standard states that when the status property is
not present under a node, the okay value is assumed. There are many
reasons for doing the same, the number of strings in the device
tree, default power management functionality, etc. are a few of the
reasons.

In general, after a few rounds of discussions [1] there are few
options one could take when dealing with SoC dtsi and board dts

a. SoC dtsi provide nodes as a super-set default (aka enabled) state and
   to prevent messy board files, when more boards are added per SoC, we
   optimize and disable commonly un-used nodes in board-common.dtsi
b. SoC dtsi disables all hardware dependent nodes by default and board
   dts files enable nodes based on a need basis.
c. Subjectively pick and choose which nodes we will disable by default
   in SoC dtsi and over the years we can optimize things and change
   default state depending on the need.

While there are pros and cons on each of these approaches, the right
thing to do will be to stick with device tree default standards and
work within those established rules. So, we choose to go with option
(a).

Lets cleanup defaults of j721e SoC dtsi before this gets more harder
to cleanup later on and new SoCs are added.

The only functional difference between the dtb generated is
status='okay' is no longer necessary for mcasp10 and depends on the
default state.

NOTE: There is a known risk of omission that new board dts developers
might miss reviewing both the board schematics in addition to all the
DT nodes of the SoC when setting appropriate nodes status to disable
or reserved in the board dts. This can expose issues in drivers that
may not anticipate an incomplete node (example: missing appropriate
board properties) being in an "okay" state. These cases are considered
bugs and need to be fixed in the drivers as and when identified.
