[PATCH] setup: Move unmask of async interrupts after possible earlycon setup

[Jon Masters]

The kernel wants to enable reporting of asynchronous interrupts (i.e.
System Errors) as early as possible. But if this happens too early
then a pending System Error on initial entry into the kernel will
never be reported where a user can see it (instead it will remain
in the kernel ring buffer and be visible only via hardware debug).
Therefore, move the enabling of asynchronous interrupts to after
parsing any possible earlycon parameters setting up earlycon.
