[PATCH v3 3/3] of: support passing console options with stdout-path

From: Leif Lindholm
Date: Thu Nov 27 2014 - 12:56:16 EST


Support specifying console options (like with console=ttyXN,<options>)
by appending them to the stdout-path property after a separating ':'.

Example:
stdout-path = "uart0:115200";
