Both TTY devices are used for the same GNSS module. First one is
read/write and the second one is read only. They are discovered by
checking ICE_E810T_P0_GNSS_PRSNT_N bit in ICE_PCA9575_P0_IN register.
This means that the GNSS module is physically present on the PCB.
The design with one RW and one RO TTY device was requested by
customers.

Thanks!
