One more doubt: does it actually make sense/is it safe to add the
sleep config for all UARTs in the SoC file? I wonder if there could
be undesired behavior (like noise on TX or RTS looking active to the
other side) without the corresponding pinconf in the board file. If
the pinconf is needed to avoid unexpected behavior then it is better
to change the muxing in the board file to have a sane default
configuration in the SoC .dtsi.

for their UART pins and some boards add it in their DT.
