Subject: [PATCH v14 3/4] x86/earlyprintk: setup earlyprintk as early as possible

The earlyprintk is usable only after the setup_early_printk() will
be executed. We pass 'earlyprintk' through the kernel command line, so it
will be usable only after the parse_early_param() will be executed. This means
that we have usable earlyprintk only during early boot, kernel decompression
and after call of the parse_early_param(), but sometimes it is very useful to
know what occurs in between. The earlyprintk can allow us to know what occurs
after kernel decompression and before parse_early_param() will be called.
There are many stuff after the kernel decompression and before the
parse_early_param() will be called as memblock usage, early cpu initialization,
early ioremap initialization and etc... So earlyprintk allows us to see
what's going on there.

This patch provides the following stuff:

1. This patch introduces the setup_earlyprintk_console() function,
which called arch/x86/kernel/head{32,64}.c, parses kernel command line,
tries to find 'earlyprintk' option and calls setup_early_printk() depending
on the result.

2. As setup_earlyprintk_console() setups earlyprintk very early, we can't
use all console devices for now, but only serial and vga. There is
is_earlyprintk_late variable which determines ability to setup earlyprintk
for the certain device.

3. Call of the lockdep_init() added to the arch/x86/kernel/head{32,64}.c
to prevent call of the register_console before the initialization of lockdep.

In other way there we will get:

[ 0.000000] WARNING: lockdep init error! lock-(console_sem).lock was acquiredbefore lockdep_init
[ 0.000000] Call stack leading to lockdep invocation was:
[ 0.000000] [] save_stack_trace+0x2f/0x50

[ 0.000000] [] x86_64_start_kernel+0xce/0x110
[ 0.000000] [] 0xffffffffffffffff
[ 0.000000] ------------------------

This patch adds lockdep_init() to the arch/x86/kernel/head{32,64}.c, but
not removed it from the init/main.c, because there is a couple of architectures
which have support of the lockdep, but do not call lockdep_init() in their
architecture-dependent code.

4. As setup_earlyprintk_console can be called twice: from
setup_earlyprintk_console() and parse_early_param(), additional check is added
to the really early consoles to prevent initialization of already initialized
consoles.

Tested with qemu, so early_printk() is usable and prints to serial
console right after setup_early_printk() function called.

We will not see earlyprintk messages in the dmesg buffer, because
it is too early to initialized log_buf.
