The changes to the device tree look very wrong. There are now two

Why not just fix the conflicting nodes?
And how would you fix it? There are two conflicting drivers. Like
I said, maybe it should be an MFD driver, see for example
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/atmel-flexcom.txt, which also
have a common block which you can switch between different modes. But
that would mean a lot of work which I don't think will happen until
the next merge window, let alone that this is not a bugfix.
Therefore, the only sensible thing is to revert the latest changes,
so that you don't have a broken device tree released with 5.17 and
work on a proper support for the next release.
And TBH, I'd expect that NXP will fix this.
