Hi Ed,

Thank you very much for your work.

Sorry, but why do we need these definitions for disabled nodes?

Or why don't we do similar definitions for nodes other than uart?
For example, PWM12, I2S3, and SPI3 also use M1. Are they not related to 
SD/eMMC and therefore don't need to be defined?

If users want to use UARTs on pin headers, they will refer to the 
correct documentation[1] to determine which pins are UARTs and will of 
course write the correct pinctrl definition.
