Microsoft Debug Port Table (DBGP or DBG2) is used by the Windows SoC

Recent Low Power Intel Architecture (LPIA) platforms have utilized
this for the SPI UART debug ports that are resident on their debug
boards.

This patch set enables the DBGP/DBG2 debug ports as an Linux early
console launcher.
The SPI UART debug ports support is also refined to co-exist with this
new usage model.

Hi Len,

You want to take this, or should I?
