[Qemu-devel] [RFC] arm/virt: add one more uart for UEFI runtime debug

[Heyi Guo <guoheyi@huawei.com>]

This patch is based on the discussion in TianoCore edk2-devel mailing
list:
https://lists.01.org/pipermail/edk2-devel/2019-March/037986.html

The conclusion is that we need an individual UART for UEFI runtime
services to print debug message at runtime, to avoid conflicting with
the system UART. We cannot use the secure UART either, for we may both
have Trusted Firmware and UEFI runtime services running on the VM, and
it is not easy to keep synchronization between the two components.

To keep backward compatibility, UEFI UART is put behind the secure
UART when secure world is enabled.
