Err.. no. On my system legacy_serial doesn't touch the ports, but I'm
getting console output via of_serial just fine. The console is
initialized rather later than would be ideal, but it works.
I know that BenH has expressed the strong preference that
legacy_serial should be reverted to only handling legacy ISA ports,
not SoC and other hardwired ports.
