I am wondering what happens here. This sequence changes something.
But what?
-External pin state
 - CTS/RTS / PCM pins?
-Internal state of the module (but it should be..off anyways)
-Internal state of the soc
-energy harvesting functionality of the bt/wifi combo module ;-)

But then the interesting question is why I see this only on runtime.

Or maybe the module gets confused because of some RTS/CTS/whatever
state. UART1/UART2 clocks have common parents,
MMC1/2 should also have. So I would expect trouble when both
UART1/2 are powered down. But not only one.
