In order to access the UART without the interrupts, the kernel uses
the basic polling methods for IO with the device. With these methods
implemented, it is now possible to enable kgdb during early boot over serial.

When I tested your patch, I found only one case can work if the port
used by KGDB is same with the port selected as console, which means
this port will be powered on all the time. We had implemented the
power management for the UART ports, so I think you should enable the
clock for the port used by KGDB in poll_init(), then other ports can
be used by KGDB.

Yes, agree with you. I will add poll_init() support. Thanks for your
comments.
