Which particular SoC or board is this triggered by?

From the SoCs listed as belonging to the MACH_SUN8I "family", I don't
see the R40 and V3s having UART1 muxed on PortG, only A23, A33, H3, H5,
and A83T have.
So can you restrict the conditions?

This should be SUNXI_GPG(7).

The leading zeroes in there make me suspicious that this has been
broken for a while.
And also it looks like all(?) board DTs have a stdout-path
property already anyway.
So I'd recommend to leave this out, I will probably send a patch to
remove this altogether.

Cheers,
Andre
