[PATCH 6/8] tty/serial: pl011: add generic earlycon support

From: Rob Herring
Date: Fri Mar 21 2014 - 17:11:15 EST


From: Rob Herring <robh@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add earlycon support for the pl011 serial port. This allows enabling
the pl011 for console when early_params are processed. This is based
on the arm64 earlyprintk support and is intended to replace it.
