switching to the matching ttyS device later. The
options are the same as for ttyS, above.
+ If the device connected to the port is not a TTY but a braille
+ device, prepend "brl," before the device type, for instance
+ console=brl,ttyS0
+ For now, only VisioBraille is supported.
+
earlycon= [KNL] Output early console device and options.
uart[8250],io,<addr>[,options]
uart[8250],mmio,<addr>[,options]
1 will print _a lot_ more information - normally
only useful to kernel developers.
+ debug_objects [KNL] Enable object debugging

machvec= [IA64] Force the use of a particular machine-vector
(machvec) in a generic kernel.
Example: machvec=hpzx1_swiotlb
nr_uarts= [SERIAL] maximum number of UARTs to be registered.
+ olpc_ec_timeout= [OLPC] ms delay when issuing EC commands
+ Rather than timing out after 20 ms if an EC
+ command is not properly ACKed, override the length
+ of the timeout. We have interrupts disabled while
+ waiting for the ACK, so if this is set too high
+ interrupts *may* be lost!
+
opl3= [HW,OSS]
Format: <io>
This is normally done in pci_enable_device(),
so this option is a temporary workaround
for broken drivers that don't call it.
+ skip_isa_align [X86] do not align io start addr, so can
+ handle more pci cards
firmware [ARM] Do not re-enumerate the bus but instead
just use the configuration from the
bootloader. This is currently used on
