Hi Andreas,

Thank you for reviewing!

Sure, I will revert unnecessary changes.

I actually tried initially to reuse the existing code, but I found
a few (possible) issues:

- owl_uart_port_write() does more things than I think it's really
needed here, i.e. I'm not sure if the locking stuff and the IRQ
setup are required. From what I've noticed, most serial drivers provide
a very simple implementation (and lock free) for the callbacks, but
I couldn't figure out if locking could be required in some
circumstances.

- owl_console_putchar() could be a better alternative, but it depends
on CONFIG_SERIAL_OWL_CONSOLE which might not be enabled if the user
only chooses CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE, although this is probably
not a valid scenario.

Kind regards,
Cristi
