This reverts commit 295d3942b806552503243f5cfb36aec6f1b5a9bf.

It turns that this really doesn't work very nicely. Instead we should
have a pre-console panic function so that we know that further execution
is impossible and we don't need to worry about trampling on UARTs, etc.

-- Pre-console putc():
-               Prior to the console being initialised, console output is

-               If the CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_PUTC option is defined, then

-               character in this case, This function should try to output
-               the character if possible, perhaps on all available UARTs
-               (it will need to do this directly, since the console code
-               is not functional yet). Note that if the panic happens
-               early enough, then it is possible that board_init_f()
-               (or even arch_cpu_init() on ARM) has not been called yet.
-               You should init all clocks, GPIOs, etc. that are needed
-               to get the character out. Baud rates will need to default
-               to something sensible.

 - Safe printf() functions
                Define CONFIG_SYS_VSNPRINTF to compile in safe versions of
                the printf() functions. These are defined in
