I'm curious, what is the default parent and why is this wrong? For the
already exisiting uart2 we don't do that. Same applies for uart3.

The default parent is OSC_24M. The uart2 is for console, so 24M is ok.
As I recall, we met issue 24M not able to get higher baudrate.

What did you mean by higher baudrate, is it everything > 115200? When
the console baudrates can be fullfilled with the PLL1_80M as well
wouldn't it be worth to fix the imx8mp.dtsi instead?

To console, we use 115200, 24M could fullfill it.

BaudRate = (clk / ref_clk_div) / (16 * (ubmr + 1) / (ubir + 1))

If you have 24M ref_clk, the max baudrate is 1.5M, with setting
ubmr, ubir to 0, and ref clk divider to 1.

So more higher baudrate, 24M could not fulfill.

THanks,
Peng.
