The statement above still stands.
I would like you to apply this series to a 5.17-fixes branch because
of a change from the tty.git tree which will be going into 5.17 to
drop the "amlogic,meson-uart" earlycon handling: [0]

To make it clear: Backporting this series to kernels older than 5.17
won't break or fix anything.
Only 5.17 and newer will need this due to a change [0] in the tty.git
tree. Without the patches from this series the 32-bit SoCs won't have
earlycon support in 5.17.


Thank you!
Martin
