Subject: serial: make early_uart use early_param instead of console_initcall
From: Yinghai Lu <Yinghai.Lu@xxxxxxx>
Make early_uart to use early_param, so uart console can be used earlier.
Make it to be bootconsole with CON_BOOT flag, so can use console handover
feature. and it will switch to corresponding normal serial console
automatically. new command line will be
earlycon=uart,io,0x3f8,9600n8
earlycon=uart,io,0x3f8,9600n8 console=tty0
it will print in very early stage
Early serial console at I/O port 0x3f8 (options '9600n8')
later for console it will print
console handover: boot [uart0] -> real [ttyS0]
