Armada-3700's uart is a simple serial port, which doesn't
support. Configuring the modem control lines. The uart port has a 32
bytes Tx FIFO and a 64 bytes Rx FIFO

The uart driver implements the uart core operations. It also support the
system (early) console based on Armada-3700's serial port.

Known Issue:

The uart driver currently doesn't support clock programming, which means
the baud-rate stays with the default value configured by the bootloader
at boot time

Make use of ARCH_RENESAS in place of ARCH_SHMOBILE.

This is part of an ongoing process to migrate from ARCH_SHMOBILE to
ARCH_RENESAS the motivation for which being that RENESAS seems to be a more
appropriate name than SHMOBILE for the majority of Renesas ARM based SoCs.

Microblaze currently uses the old earlyprintk system, rather than the
unified earlycon support, to show boot messages on uartlite. Add
earlycon support so that other archs using uartlite can benefit from
it. The new code in uartlite.c is copied almost verbatim from
arch/microblaze/kernel/early_printk.c.

"earlyprintk" is architecture specific option.
General "earlycon" option support is much better.

Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Olof Johansson:
 "Driver updates for ARM SoCs.  Some for SoC-family code under
  drivers/soc, but also some other driver updates that don't belong
  anywhere else.  We also bring in the drivers/reset code through
  arm-soc.

  Some of the larger updates:

   - Qualcomm support for SMEM, SMSM, SMP2P.  All used to communicate
     with other parts of the chip/board on these platforms, all
     proprietary protocols that don't fit into other subsystems and live
     in drivers/soc for now.

   - System bus driver for UniPhier

   - Driver for the TI Wakeup M3 IPC device

   - Power management for Raspberry PI

  + Again a bunch of other smaller updates and patches"

As the of-serial driver is now 8250 specific, we can move the
file to a more appropriate place in teh 8250 subdirectory and
adapt the Kconfig help text and file name.

I'm leaving the CONFIG_SERIAL_OF_PLATFORM symbol unchanged
to avoid breaking user configuration files unnecessarily.
