[PATCH v2 0/9] MIPS: Unify low-level debugging functionalities

[Jiaxun Yang]

Hi all,

This is a attempt to bring all low-level debugging print functions
together and provide a arm-like low-level debugging interface and
a further capability to debug early exceptions.

This patch elimiate platform specific early_printk, zboot printing
functions and cps-vec-ns16550 by newly introduced debug_ll.

Hope you'll find them handy :-)

Happy hacking!

Thanks
