Subject: [RFC PATCH v5 6/6] serial: 8250: Add preferred console in serial8250_isa_init_ports()

Prepare 8250 ISA ports to drop kernel command line serial console
handling from console_setup().

We need to set the preferred console in serial8250_isa_init_ports()
to drop a dependency to setup_console() handling the ttyS related
quirks. Otherwise when console_setup() handles the ttyS related
options, console gets enabled only at driver probe time.

Note that this mostly affects x86 as this happens based on define
SERIAL_PORT_DFNS.
