[PATCH v2 2/2] serial: earlycon: allow to specify uartclk in earlycon kernel-parameter

[Masahiro Yamada]

The input clock frequency varies from device to device, but the
earlycon uses the fixed frequency (BASE_BAUD * 16).  It makes
impossible to set the correct divisor to the register.

This commit allows to specify the input clock frequency from the
kernel-parameter.

[Example]

    earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0x43fb0000,115200,12288000

The input clock frequency (12288000, in this case) should be specified
after the baudrate.  If not specified, the default (BASE_BAUD * 16) is
used.
