How about having separate bcm-nsp-ax and bcm-nsp-bx dtsi files with the
appropriate secondary-boot-reg and dma-coherent (or lack of)
properties, which then include bcm-nsp.dtsi. Thus we can also avoid use
of /delete-property/. Would this be preferable?

I did not come across any convention regarding this, though there are
plenty of cases where the /chosen, /aliases and /memory nodes are
defined in a .dtsi file and used by multiple similar boards. Also note
in this case /aliases is defined in bcm-nsp.dtsi, not by me. Would we
not prefer to avoid having 6x duplication?
