AH HA!

earlyprintk=serial,ttyS0,115200

You are invoking the same device twice which is why you are having infinite recursion.  It was not obvious to me why the earlyprintk code would allow "serial" or "ttyS", but perhaps we need to protect for that?

Your boot line should be:

earlyprintk=serial,115200

OR

earlyprintk=ttyS0,115200

The line you had there before would have been the equivalent of doing:

earlyprintk=ttyS0,ttyS0,115200

Given this, do we still need to execute the revert your revert?  Or perhaps do we need to add some protection?

Thanks,
Jason.
