I try to re-enalbe it when the at91sam9x5.dtsi exposes a compatibility
sting != at91rm9200-rtc

will soon appear on mailing-list.

Well, if uart1 is available on Aria board, I should enable it! If you do
not want it on your own design, you must modify the .dts yourself. So I
plan to have an "okay" status on it (and move the definition itself to
the generic .dtsi).

Yep, I see, but I try to cleanup the patch as much as I can. If you want
it untouched, provide me a standard formated patch.

Makes sense: I keep it in mind. In parallel, it can be interesting if
you can send me a patch with all these mistakes corrected ;-)
