But what boards are those? It seems like all boards use uart3-pg and
the two existing boards use UART0.

I think the idea is to use omit-if-no-ref on some rarely used nodes, so
if there is only a single user, for instance. Your next patch is a good
example.

So I don't think this patch here is needed at all.

Cheers,
Andre
