Just put it into the kirkwood_defconfig file, that is the cleanest approach by
far. We might still get a few people who run into this problem when updating,
but in the long run it will be ok.
I'd also accept a patch to make ARCH_KIRKWOOD_DT select OF_SERIAL if people
prefer that, but I think just changing the defconfig is better.
