So those bits are just for the *debug* UARTs. Traditionally this is UART0,
with some particular pinmux, sometimes UART2 on older SoCs.

So is there a board that uses those pins for a debug console? I want to
avoid making this code even messier than it already is, without good
reasons. Also please note that I tried to clean this up here:

Is this a custom board? Could you consider using UART0 for debug then?
This one doesn't support RTS/CTS, so you do not waste the more capable
UARTs for debug.

Cheers,
Andre
