It's most likely a case that just wasn't cleaned up.  If you want to
correct things by dropping CONFIG_SYS_NS16550_MEM32 and checking
CONFIG_SYS_NS16550_REG_SIZE instead, that's fine.

Well, it's just SOC_DA8XX that isn't doing it today, and we need to
migrate that CONFIG symbol or do away with it.
