2010-07-13x86, setup: Make the setup code also accept console=uart8250Yinghai Lu
Make the boot code also accept the console=uart8250,io,0x2f8,115200n form of early console. Also add back simple_guess_base(), otherwise those simple_strtoull(,,0) are not going to work.

2010-07-12x86, setup: Early-boot serial I/O supportPekka Enberg
This patch adds serial I/O support to the real-mode setup (very early boot) printf(). It's useful for debugging boot code when running Linux under KVM, for example. The actual code was lifted from early printk.
