are you sure, you need all 3 of them?

I.e. most Rockchip SoCs so far had one uart somewhat designated as debug uart. 
Most likely due to it not having rts/cts and being used in reference 
schematics, but no one ever used another uart than uart2 on previous socs. So 
ideally we could check and only add uarts we actually need for now. More can 
be added later anyway once boards try to use them.
