just wondering if possible to introduce a generic earlycon sub option? so kernel
can parse reg-shift from command line parameter instead of hardcoding here,
which would benefit more drivers (potentially without adding more OF_EARLYCON_DECLAREs..)
I mean something like this:
Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt
uart[8250],mmio32,<addr>[,options[,reg-shift=0,1,2,4 ..]]
