This will help user to just specify "earlyprintk" from bootargs without actually knowing the address and device to enable earlyprintk. Mechanism: One can just append earlyprintk=device-type,address (same as we pass through command line) in "/chosen" node to notify kernel which is the earlyprintk device and what is its address. Backward Compatibility: This patch also allows existing method of specifying earlyprintk parameter via bootargs. Existing method i.e. passing via bootargs will still have precedence over device tree i.e. if one specifies earlyprintk=device-type,address in bootargs then kernel will use information from bootargs instead of device tree. If user just specifies earlyprintk (without =...) then kernel will look for device tree earlyprintk parameter.
