I forgot to ask: Does your i.MX8MP have a VPU? There are i.MX8MP devices
(don't know the name) which don't have support for certain IPs. If this
is the case the bootloader will fixup your devicetree by disable the
corresponding nodes, we call this feature-controller:

https://elixir.bootlin.com/barebox/latest/source/arch/arm/dts/imx8mp.dtsi

As you can see the imx8mp.dtsi is missing the feature bits for the VPU
but you can check the i.mx8mm.dtsi. Here you can see that barebox will
check the availability of the vpu:
