My kernel cmdline:
  console=ttyAMA0,115200 earlycon=pl011,0x7ff80000 root=/dev/sda1 rootwait verbose debug sky2.mac_address=0x00,0x02,0xF7,0x00,0x63,0x3C dtb=r1a57.dtb

earlycon is broken with Russell's patches.  My patch fixes it, but
only for standard pl011 devices.

No, it shouldn't be.  Earlycon uses pl011_putc() which remains exactly
the same as it was before these patches.

        while (readl(port->membase + REG_FR) & UART01x_FR_TXFF)

is broken because REG_FR is equal to 1.

Patch 4, which changes to the REG_* stuff, does not (explicitly) touch
this because it _will_ break stuff.
