tty/serial: add generic serial earlycon
This introduces generic earlycon infrastructure for serial devices based on the 8250 earlycon. This allows for supporting earlycon option with other serial devices. The earlycon output is enabled at the time early_params are processed. Only architectures that have fixmap support or have functional ioremap when early_params are processed are supported. This is the same restriction that the 8250 driver had. Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org> Cc: Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
