Subject: [PATCH 7/8] tty/serial: add arm64 semihosting earlycon

From: [email-masked] (Rob Herring)
Date: Fri, 21 Mar 2014 16:08:47 -0500

From: Rob Herring <[email-masked]>

Add earlycon support for the arm64 semihosting debug serial interface.
This allows enabling a debug console when early_params are processed.
This is based on the arm64 earlyprintk smh support and is intended to
replace it.

This is named arm rather than arm64 in hopes it will be used for both,
but only arm64 is supported ATM.
