Have a look in the documentation here
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt

The kernels kernel-parameter.txt documentation file lists the supported drivers. 

Generally the UART0 port is used for debugging but I guess there is
no such hard and fast rule.

For your particular board, you can check which UART port is used
as the debug serial console and then get the address for the concerned
UART by checking the relevant dtsi file in
arch/arm/boot/dts/s3c24xx.dtsi or perhaps one of the exynosX.dtsi files?

UART0 port seems to have address of 0x50000000?
