[PATCH v4] tty: serial: meson: Implement earlycon support

Sun Mar 6 03:21:24 PST 2016


Split off the bulk of the existing meson_serial_console_write()
implementation into meson_serial_port_write() for implementing
meson_serial_early_console_write().

Use "meson" as the earlycon driver name, courtesy of Nicolas.

 v3 -> v4:
 * Select SERIAL_EARLYCON (Arnd)
 
 v2 -> v3:
 * Rename from "meson_serial" to just "meson" (Nicolas)
 
 v1 -> v2:
 * Implement meson_serial_early_console_write() instead of reusing
   meson_serial_console_write() (Peter)
