Subject: [PATCH 0/8] MIPS: Unify low-level debugging functionalities

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 function to debug early exceptions.

The plan is to elimiate platform specific early_printk and
cps-vec-ns16550 by debug_ll and earlycon.

cps-vec-ns16550 is leave unchanged for now due to pending patch[1].

Hope you'll find them handy :-)

Happy hacking!

Thanks
Jiaxun
