[PATCH] arm: dts: imx8mn-beacon-kit-u-boot: Fix broken booting

When the imx8mm.dtsi file was pulled in from Linux, the UARTs were moved into an spba sub-node which wasn't being included in the SPL device tree. This meant the references to the UART weren't being handled properly and when booting the system would constantly reboot. Fix this by adding the spba node to the spl device tree to restore normal booting.

Are you going to include it in imx8mn-u-boot.dtsi or do we need to patch every single board?

This is a temporary fix until I generate the common imx8mn-u-boot.dtsi which will include this.

I was hoping to finish this this afternoon, but a family emergency came up. I'm going to try to finish it later tonight or tomorrow. It's taking a bit longer because there are some boards with DDR4, LPDDR4 and DDR3. I don't have most of them, but I plan to at least generate a flash.bin file before posting it.

Applied to u-boot-imx, master, thanks !
