If you want to use of_serial together with serial console, you need
to make sure that the detection logic in arch/powerpc/kernel/legacy_serial.c
finds the port. It currently finds the serial port on axon, but that
requires that the bus it's on is of type "opb" and the device itself
is listed as "stdout" and has type "serial" and is compatible with
"ns16750" (note: the others look for "ns16550" here).
