soc/intel/common/uart: Add support for enabling UART debug controller on resume
It has been observed on a number of platforms (baytrail, kaby lake) that if serial console is not enabled in coreboot, but is enabled in kernel (v4.4), then on resume kernel hangs. In order to fix this, add support for enabling UART debug port controller on resume. In order to decide whether UART debug port controller should be enabled in ramstage, following things are checked in given order: 1. If coreboot has serial console enabled, there is no need to re-initialize the controller. 2. This special action is taken only for UART debug port controller. 3. If boot is not S3 resume, then initialization is skipped. 4. Callback into SoC to check if it wants to initialize the controller. If all the above conditions are met, then UART debug port controller is initialized and taken out of reset. BUG=b:64030366 TEST=Verified with the entire patchset series that: 1. If coreboot does not have serial console enabled, but Linux kernel has console enabled, then on resume, coreboot initializes UART debug port controller. 2. If coreboot and Linux do not have serial console enabled, then coreboot does not initialize UART debug port controller. 3. If coreboot has serial console enabled, there is no change in behavior.
