I thought that was fixed recently.

Generally speaking, the kernel should not rely on the order of
nodes in the dtb.

All of these are board specific, the common way to handle this is to make
a vf610m4.dtsi file and include that from a v6610m4-myboard.dts file
which sets the properties.
The command line should actually be set by the boot loader.
Also, it would be good to make the uart driver handle the early console
setup through the stdout-path property.

Don't comment out nodes, just make them as 'status="disabled"'.
For any peripherals that are accessible to both the m4 and the a5
core, it might be nice to put them into a shared .dtsi file.
