The input clock frequency varies from device to device, but the earlycon uses the fixed frequency (BASE_BAUD * 16). It makes impossible to set the correct divisor to the register.
This commit allows to specify the input clock frequency from the kernel-parameter. [Example] earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0x43fb0000,115200,12288000 The input clock frequency (12288000, in this case) should be specified after the baudrate. If not specified, the default (BASE_BAUD * 16) is used.
