The early_console_setup() function initializes sci_ports[0].port with an
object of type struct uart_port obtained from the struct earlycon_device
passed as an argument to early_console_setup().
Later, during serial port probing, the serial port used as earlycon
(e.g., port A) might be remapped to a different position in the sci_ports[]
array, and a different serial port (e.g., port B) might be assigned to slot
0. For example:
sci_ports[0] = port B
sci_ports[X] = port A
In this scenario, the new port mapped at index zero (port B) retains the
data associated with the earlycon configuration. Consequently, after the
Linux boot process, any access to the serial port now mapped to
sci_ports[0] (port B) will block the original earlycon port (port A).
To address this, introduce an early_console_exit() function to clean up
sci_ports[0] when earlycon is exited.
To prevent the cleanup of sci_ports[0] while the serial device is still
being used by earlycon, introduce the struct sci_port::probing flag and
account for it in early_console_exit().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
