Hi,

We would need to use UART2 in final stages of A-T-F. (UART0 and UART3

works fine)

(I'm assuming you're talking about hikey here)

Out of curiosity, what do you plan to use ttyAMA2 for? I ask because we're talking about better defining how the UARTs are expected to be used so that mezzanine boards can be designed consistently.

We're settling on specifying UART1 (ttyAMA3 on HiKey) as the console and UART0 (ttyAMA2) as peripheral IO. If ATF takes over ttyAMA2 by default then it will not be available for peripherals.

Thoughts? Is this something you want by default, or an option for specific use cases? What are your expected use cases?
