 OM_TYPE_OMAP was originally used for boards like BeagleBones[1]
 until there was a refactoring to "FDTize" the support. (So,
 presumably on the netbsd-9 branch it should still "just work" as-is,
 not that I'm suggesting anyone go backwards.)
 
 As the serial console evidently works either way, perhaps this detail
 was just missed in the conversion.
