Subject: [PATCH] tty/serial: samsung: Add earlycon support
Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2014 17:02:43 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1410867163-27962-1-git-send-email-alim.akhtar@samsung.com> (raw)

Add earlycon support for the samsung serial port. This allows enabling
the samsung serial port for console when early_params are parse and processed.
