Currently, UART1 on Zaius BMC is unusable until brought out of reset by
powering the host on. In this reset state, ttyS0 can still be opened
and UART1 silently drops bytes, which is not obviously expected
behavior.

Clear the LPC block control bit that enables LPCRST# as a reset source
for UART1.

I still don't follow.  Is this changing it to drop bytes until the host
powers on?  Is this change making it so the device won't open?

I understand it to be the other way around: 

In the existing configuration UART1 will drop bytes by being held in
reset until the host initialises the LPC bus (i.e. releases LPCRST#)
during boot.

Xo's change reconfigures the SoC so that UART1 reset state doesn't
depend on LPCRST# (i.e. the host initialising the LPC bus), so it is
immediately useful in that it won't discard bytes.

Xo?

Yes, what Andrew said. It releases UART1 from being controlled by LPC
reset, so that it's available regardless of the host being up.

OK.  I didn't get that from the commit message or comments as written.
