[U-Boot] [PATCH] Add background serial print and correct search_device function

The patch introduces a new macro 'CFG_BG_CONSOLE_SERIAL'.
It means print messages through serial port although current console isn't serial port.
It is important for debugging and looks like multi-consoles in Linux but without input.

Another modification in the patch is that verify if search_device function found device. 
If found, return dev. Otherwise, return NULL.
