[PATCH] tty: serial: meson: enable console as module

From: Kevin Hilman
Date: Thu Dec 10 2020 - 19:59:10 EST


Enable serial driver to be built as a module. To do so, init the
console support on driver/module load instead of using
console_initcall().

Yes, I'm well aware that having the serial console as a module makes
devices hard to debug, so I'm not changing any default behavior. The
goal is just to enable building as a module for environments where
serial debug is not available or needed.
