   Yes, this is the problem.  When a UART is specified as the console
using "console=uart,...", the console index is not initialized.  This
causes the uart_console() check to mis-identify the port and we enable
sleep mode when we don't intend to do so.  Not sure how to fix it yet,
but I assume we need to go back through after the serial ports are
enumerated, and un-suspend the console port.  David, would you mind
trying this on the XR16L255x part? (ie. don't use console=ttyS, use
console=uart,...)  Thanks,

	Alex
