Fixes #418

Summary

The debug serial port of Radxa ZERO 3 uses UART2_M0 (40-pin GPIO Pin 8: TX, Pin 10: RX) at 1500000n8 by default. However, UART2_M0 is also the default U-Boot console: if a user enables UART2_M0 as a normal UART through the rsetup overlay, serial input during boot interrupts the boot process and the device may fail to boot (see radxa-build/radxa-zero3#19).

This PR fills the previously empty "调试串口 / Debug Serial Port" section of the ZERO 3 hardware-interface page (ZH + EN) with:

  • The pin/baudrate mapping for the debug serial port
  • A warning that UART2_M0 is not recommended for use as a normal UART
  • The workaround steps for users who still need UART2_M0 (system + bootloader update via rsetup, edit /etc/default/u-boot to set prompt/timeout to 0, run sudo u-boot-update)

Source

GitHub issue #418 referencing radxa-build/radxa-zero3#19 (comment from RadxaYuntian).

Changes

  • docs/zero/zero3/hardware-design/hardware-interface.md (ZH)
  • i18n/en/docusaurus-plugin-content-docs/current/zero/zero3/hardware-design/hardware-interface.md (EN)

Checklist

  • ZH + EN both updated (bilingual guard passed)
  • Small, precise, docs-only change (2 files, 1 commit)

The debug serial port of ZERO 3 uses UART2_M0 (40-pin GPIO Pin 8 TX /
Pin 10 RX) at 1500000n8 by default. UART2_M0 is also the default U-Boot
console, so enabling it as a normal UART via rsetup overlay can interrupt
the boot process. Document this limitation and the workaround
(system/bootloader update via rsetup, /etc/default/u-boot prompt/timeout
= 0, sudo u-boot-update).

Fixes radxa-docs#418
