sun6i/sun8i have a UART in the RTC block group, which can be used
as an early console. This is most useful on sun8i as UART0 is muxed
with MMC0, which is not available if we boot from MMC.

                Say Y here if you want kernel low-level debugging support
                on Allwinner A1X based platforms on the UART1.

+     config DEBUG_SUNXI_R_UART
+             bool "Kernel low-level debugging messages via sunXi R_UART"
+             depends on ARCH_SUNXI
It should rather depend on MACH_SUN8I.
I assume no sun6i devices would use it, or have pads available for
it?  If so, then MACH_SUN8I makes sense.
Then a depends on MACH_SUN6I || MACH_SUN8I.
