This doesn't prevent negative indexing in case someone
does something like shift key typo "ttyS!" for "ttyS1".

I've done that.

Gah; late night coding syndrome. Adding the missing cast in the first case only:

Subject: [PATCH v2] x86: Fix earlyprintk ttyS2/3

Quite a few platforms use ttyS2 for their serial-over-LAN, so fix early
printk support for ttyS2 and 3, avoiding the need to hard-code the IO port.

v2: Add missing unsigned cast to correct range check
