Yes this always comes up. Another approach would be to declare that a
serial driver must be available and just use the console alias and
assume that the device must be pre-reloc. But I worry that with I2C,
SPI , etc. potentially wanting pre-reloc init this might be a losing
battle.
This way, board authors have complete flexibility, and the file is in
after all the U-Boot source tree.
Regards,
Simon
