I'm afraid this doesn't scale. You are opening a can of worms here. The UART port may seem simple enough, but you set a precedent. Next comes some netowrk interface configuration, then if we have a RTC, followed by LCD properties, and so on. We have two ways to configure hardware properties: - static configuration in the board config file - dynamic configuration through the device tree Please do not start adding other methods.
