VAR-SOM-MX6 is ok, like your link shows, but not VAR-SOM-MX6UL.

If someone looks at VAR-SOM-MX6UL, they may think that the "MX6" part
refers to the VAR-SOM-MX6, or they may think that the "6UL" part refers
to the VAR-SOM-6UL, and it can be extremely confusing. This was my
understanding at first, and the reason why I submitted this patch.

If you look at the associated board entry in the binding, it says
"const: variscite,mx6ulconcerto" but the VAR-SOM-MX6 doesn't use
the concerto board. It uses a board named "VAR-MX6CustomBoard":

The VAR-SOM-6UL uses the concerto board:

https://variscite.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Concerto-Board_Datasheet.pdf

So the description in the binding "i.MX6UL Variscite VAR-SOM-MX6 Boards"
is wrong, and needs to be replaced with VAR-SOM-6UL.

By the way, support for the VAR-SOM-MX6 is provided by this binding entry:
   - description: i.MX6Q Variscite VAR-SOM-MX6 Boards
    items:
      - const: variscite,mx6customboard
      - const: variscite,var-som-imx6q
      - const: fsl,imx6q

With my new research, as explained above, this is not the case. I will
modify the description to reflect that it supports VAR-SOM-6UL modules only.
