tty: amba-pl011: use iotype instead of access_32b to track 32-bit I/O
Instead of defining a new field in the uart_amba_port structure, use the
existing iotype field of the uart_port structure, which is intended for
this purpose. If we need to use 32-bit register access, we set iotype
to UPIO_MEM32, otherwise we set it to UPIO_MEM.
For early console, specify the "mmio32" option on the kernel command-line.
Example:
earlycon=pl011,mmio32,0x3ced1000
