[PATCH] serial: mps2-uart: Initialize early console

From: linux@roeck-us.net (Guenter Roeck)
Date: 2018-06-19 04:55:05
Also in: linux-serial, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, tty layer and serial drivers · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Jiri Slaby

The early console code for mps2-uart assumes that the serial hardware is
enabled for transmit when the system boots. However, this is not the case
after reset. This results in a hang in mps2_early_putchar() if the serial
transmitter is not enabled by a boot loader or ROM monitor.
