If you drop fsl,imx8qxp-lpuart in the compatible list, fsl_lpuart.c
needs a new lpuart_soc_data for imx8qm in order to work. "fsl,imx7ulp-
lpuart" is not enough for imx8qm, as (among other things) "baud" clk is
mising in imx7. IMHO there are 2 ways:

1st
Add both fsl,imx8qxp-lpuart and fsl,imx7ulp-lpuart to the compatible
list to get both regular serial support (fsl,imx8qxp-lpuart) as well as
earlycon (fsl,imx7ulp-lpuart). In this case the bindings need to get
fixed as well, see [1]

2nd
Remove fsl,imx8qxp-lpuart compatible for imx8qm. But in this case
everything done for imx8qxp in fsl_lpuart.c has to be duplicated.
fsl,imx7ulp-lpuart is still required for earlycon support.

If you want to get rid of fsl,imx7ulp-lpuart compatible for
imx8qm/imx8qxp in either case, you need to revert b4b844930f27 ("tty:
serial: fsl_lpuart: drop earlycon entry for i.MX8QXP").

Best regards,
Alexander
