Err, the DC21285 only has one serial port.

Some footbridge platforms expose the DC21285 to the outside world, others
don't.  Some footbridge platforms have a separate 8250 UART at the standard
PCI COM1 address, others don't.

What DEBUG_DC21285_PORT is selecting between is whether to use the DC21285
port (when set) or the 8250 at PCI COM1 (when unset).
