Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Lines 46 and 51 call out XPAR_XUARTPS_0_DEVICE_ID and XPAR_XUARTPS_1_DEVICE_ID. This was updated in Vitis 2024 to use XPAR_XUARTPS_0_BASEADDR and XPAR_XUARTPS_1_BASEADDR, respectively. The Example 5 from ug1209-embedded-design-tutorial will fail to compile.
