Adding Arnd.

Hmmm ... well apparently stdout-path does not work for tegra and in
order to make this work I had to do the following ...


[PATCH] serial: 8250: of: Add earlycon support for Tegra

Currently, early console support only works for Tegra when the serial
port information is passed via the earlycon boot parameter. If the
serial port information is specified via device-tree using the
"stdout-path" then the early console does not work because:

1. The tegra serial ports compatibility parameter does not match any
   of the supported serial drivers for early console.
2. The of_setup_earlycon() function assumes that serial port registers
   are byte aligned and for tegra they are 32-bit aligned.

Add an early console setup function for tegra so that the early console
can be specified via the device-tree "stdout-path" variable.

Arnd, does the above look ok, or should there be a generic
early_serial8250x32_setup() somewhere?

Cheers
