I also support the DT split between the SoM and the carrier board,
even if there are currently no more carrier boards available for
the particular SoM.  That may seem redundant, but it reflects the
nature of the hardware setup, in which the SoM plugs into the carrier
board.  This follows the principle of the DT describing hardware.
