OK, I'll let Amit comment on the console changes, but some minor style
comments below:

I prefer to avoid inline in C files. The compiler knows, and with
inline you get no warning if it becomes unused. Also, const struct
virtio_device *.

Wow, up 2 levels? Why 2? What's special about the grandparents?

Generally prefer to indent buf and buf_size, rather than break at
free_buf.

This effectively adds a blank line between "buf = ..." and "if (!buf)",
but they're adjacent because they're logically grouped.

Weird whitespace addition. I know you're doing that simply to check if
I'm reading, right?

Not sure about this change. If you actually turn off CONFIG_HOTPLUG,
I wouldn't think that remoteproc would work at all any more, since it
needs the driver core to match up devices?

This is a bit weird, to double-assign multiport = false; it looks tacked
on.
How about:
/* Don't test MULTIPORT at all if we're rproc: not a valid feature! */
if (!is_rproc_serial(vdev)
&& virtio_config_val(vdev, VIRTIO_CONSOLE_F_MULTIPORT,
offsetof(struct virtio_console_config,
max_nr_ports),
&portdev->config.max_nr_ports) == 0) {
multiport = true;
} else {
multiport = false;
portdev->config.max_nr_ports = 1;
}

Hmm, we need to cleanup if the second register fails.

Prefer decimal here...
