Yes, this series can go as-is.

My main concern is why U-Boot still uses the NXP-based
fsl-imx8qxp-mek.dts, fsl-imx8qxp-colibri.dts
variant instead of the mainline versions.

The other i.MX SoCs in U-Boot are better synced with the Linux kernel DTs.

I don't have access to i.MX8QXP/i.MX8QM boards to help on this, but
for better long-term support it would be nice if someone could sync
the U-Boot i.MX8QXP/i.MX8QM DTs with Linux.
