Hmm, maybe for device tree we could only have it initialized later
on by setting up custom early_printk in early_printk.c based on the
device tree data or machine ID?
It won't work very early then though.. If we want it to work early
we could allocate some fixed memory chunk for addruart etc functions
for which the bootloader just passes addresses.
