This is not Ok. Your last commit has your board pass the divisor in a0 now, but other
boards, like the netgear-wg102, don't. Your change might break their UART because the
code there doesn't expect that a0 needs to have a valid value. If you want to do this,
you should migrate all users of this function all at once to supply a valid divisor
(probably `move a0, DEBUG_LL_UART_DIVISOR`).

It's same thing in C. You don't add a new parameter to a function without checking
that all callsites handle this correctly.
