Commit 608b0c4ad4e5ec0c ("serial: Use next serial device if probing fails")
added code to search for more serial devices if the default one was not
probed correctly.

Unfortunately, that breaks omap3_evm. So while investigating why that is
the case, let's disable the full search for everyone but bcm283x where it
is needed.

Derald, could you please test this patch and verify it does indeed unbreak
omap3_evm?



I will check later today. The board is not with me at the moment.

Derald



Thanks!
