Sorry it took a while to respond. Life got busy.

I somehow didn't connect the dots earlier... but serial0-0 is NOT the
uart/serial device. It's the child device of serial0 and in this case,
it's the bluetooth device.
So adding those gpios in DT is not breaking serial. It's just
preventing the BT device from probing.
Looking at the logs in the non-working case:
[ 0.715083] 1c28c00.serial: ttyS1 at MMIO 0x1c28c00 (irq = 53,
base_baud = 1500000) is a U6_16550A
[ 0.724132] device: 'serial0': device_add
I don't know why all of the ttySx are showing up as serial0, but this
is the serial port. As you can see 1c28c00 is already probing.
[ 0.724228] device: 'serial0-0': device_add
This is the child devices getting populated. In this case this is the BT device.
[ 0.724311] device: 'platform:1c20800.pinctrl--serial:serial0-0': device_add
I can tell it's the BT device because we see a device link being
created between pinctrl and serial:serial0-0. So it's a device sitting
on the serial bus.
[ 0.724378] devices_kset: Moving serial0-0 to end of list
[ 0.724390] serial serial0-0: Linked as a consumer to 1c20800.pinctrl
[ 0.724401] /soc/serial@1c28c00/bluetooth Dropping the fwnode link
to /soc/pinctrl@1c20800
And the fwnode like that was converted to device link clearly shows
that the serial0-0 corresponds to the bluetooth node.
[ 0.724441] serial serial0: tty port ttyS1 registered
Serial port works.

I think the issue is at the BT driver level or some other framework.
Add a print at the start of the BT driver to see if the probe() is
actually getting called. I'm guessing it is and it's returning an
error from within.
If you don't see that print, then debug the really_probe() function to
see how far within it the BT device goes through before it errors out.
It's possible pinctrl_bind_pins() in really_probe() fails for the BT
device because of how the GPIO pins are configured in your DT.
