If a console was specified by ACPI SPCR table _and_ command line
parameters like "console=ttyAMA0" _and_ "earlycon" were specified,
then log messages appear twice.
The root cause is that the code traverses the list of specified
consoles (the `console_cmdline` array) and stops at the first match.
But it may happen that the same console is referred by the elements
of this array twice:
pl011,mmio,0x87e024000000,115200 -- from SPCR
ttyAMA0 -- from command line
but in this case `preferred_console` points to the second entry and
the flag CON_CONSDEV is not set, so bootconsole is not deregistered.
To fix that, match the console against the `console_cmdline` entry
pointed by `preferred_console` and if that fails, match against other
entries. The problem is that newcon->match() is not just a match
function, it calls setup() so it has side effects.

v2 -> v3:
v2 still changes the logic of the code and calls newcon->match()
several times. V3 fixes that. It initially matches the console
against the preferred_console entry, and then if that fails, against
other entries.
