Yes, I have tested this.

First, I have checked the stock firmware which uses the same pinctrl configuration:

  root@Archer_AX55:~# uname -a
  Linux Archer_AX55 4.4.60 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Mar 14 18:25:29 CST 2023 armv7l
GNU/Linux
  root@Archer_AX55:~# strings
/sys/firmware/devicetree/base/soc/pinctrl@1000000/uart_pins/blsp0_uart_rx_tx/pins
  gpio20
  gpio21
  root@Archer_AX55:~# strings
/sys/firmware/devicetree/base/soc/pinctrl@1000000/uart_pins/blsp0_uart_rx_tx/function
  blsp0_uart0

It is also visible in pinctrl-maps:

  root@Archer_AX55:~# cat /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/pinctrl-maps
  Pinctrl maps:
  device 1000000.pinctrl
  state default
  type MUX_GROUP (2)
  controlling device 1000000.pinctrl
  group gpio20
  function blsp0_uart0

  device 1000000.pinctrl
  state default
  type CONFIGS_GROUP (4)
  controlling device 1000000.pinctrl
  group gpio20
  config 00000001

  device 1000000.pinctrl
  state default
  type MUX_GROUP (2)
  controlling device 1000000.pinctrl
  group gpio21
  function blsp0_uart0

  device 1000000.pinctrl
  state default
  type CONFIGS_GROUP (4)
  controlling device 1000000.pinctrl
  group gpio21
  config 00000001
  ...

Additionally, this is what debug/gpio says:

  root@Archer_AX55:~# grep -E 'gpio2[01]' /sys/kernel/debug/gpio
   gpio20  : in  1 8mA no pull
   gpio21  : in  1 8mA no pull


Then I have tested the following with v6.8 and with the previous version of the
patch.

Exported GPIO20 via sysfs ...

  root@test:/# gpio=$((512+20)); echo $gpio > /sys/class/gpio/export; while
true; do for dir in high low; do echo $dir >/sys/class/gpio/gpio$gpio/direction;
sleep 3; done; done

... and measured the voltage on the UART pin header. Then I did the same with
GPIO21 as well.

This revealed that GPIO20 corresponds to RX and GPIO21 to TX.

If that matters, the downstream kernel also uses this 'trick' for some boards:
