[PATCH v6] earlycon: 8250: Fix command line regression

[Peter Hurley]

Restore undocumented behavior of kernel command line parameters of
the forms:
    console=uart[8250],io|mmio|mmio32,<addr>[,options]
    console=uart[8250],<addr>[,options]
where 'options' have not been specified; in this case, the hardware
is assumed to be initialized.

Fixes: c7cef0a84912cab3c9df8 ("console: Add extensible console matching")
Reported-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@xxxxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Peter Hurley <peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

v6: Removed documentation
  + removed unnecessary checks; this fix does not attempt to replicate
    the _exact_ original behavior, but only the reported breakage.

v5: Refactored serial8250_console_setup() & univ8250_console_setup()
    to eliminate open-coding; net +1 LOC (excludes documentation)

v4: Removed FIXME comment

v3: Fixed automatic console to port line settings initialization;
    open-coded serial8250_console_setup() so the baud can be probed;
    added sha reference in commit log

v2: Fixed regression which allowed "console=uart1337,..." to start a
    console (but not an earlycon)
  + fixed earlycon= documentation related required behavior fixed by
    this patch
