Will review.  It looks like DEBUG_UART_8250 actually has to move to 
Kconfig.debug as that is where everyone else selects it.

This is not a per-board config option.  This is actually a per-SoC 
uArchtecture selection.  More major uArchectures will be added to the 
IPROC.  Will Change comment to "Support Broadcom Cygnus SoC"

OK, thanks for advice on where to put reset device driver.  Will 
investigate.

It's a central resource unit with a lot of random registers to perform 
various operations.  To reduce confusion I'll probably move this out of 
the kernel init and into the bootloader.  This will simplify the kernel 
init.

Yes, thanks for pointing this out.

bcm_cygnus_init callback can be removed by moving initialization to 
bootloader.
