The comment in the DT file must be different because it's important to
reference the actual board it applies to.

So to fulfill this request we would need to add a common dtsi, include
it from two different dtso files.

This to save 2 lines of duplicated code, `&lpuart2 { status = "reserved"; };`.

To me this is just worst than the current proposal.
