If we want to reuse the AM62A chassis I think we should probably reused 
the AM62AX_IOPAD() macro instead of creating a new one.

So I could be a little out of date on the style guidelines here, but my 
intuition is device trees, much like real trees, can only grow, so we 
can't inherit the am62a.dtsi and remove things.

My understanding is we have to create a full am62d.dtsi with its 
features that the am62a.dtsi can extend with the vpu{} and e5010{} nodes
