That can happen with your patch as well as you don't limit the
usage of clk_get_for_console() to the UART putc_ll is configured
for. Initializing one of the other UARTs might hang your system
once you access a register.

Another option would be to implement and use a GETC_LL() macro. This
requires some thinking how this can be integrated into the console
code, but would in the end be more universally usable. With this we
could make barebox interactive even when the real serial driver is
not compiled in (or not even yet existing). See below for a prototype.
