OpenEmbedded passes "earlycon=sbi", which I can find in the doumentation.
I can't find anything about just "earlycon". I've sent a patch adding sbi
to the list of earlycon arguments.

earlycon without arguments is documented, although just for ARM64.
I can send a patch to update it to properly cover all DT platforms
in addition.

Thanks. I've kind of lost track of the thread, but assuming that does the "automatically pick an earlycon" stuff then that's probably what we should be using in the distros.
