+ Use the specified serial port on the serial core bus.
+ The addressing uses DEVNAME of the physical serial port
+ device, followed by the serial core controller instance,
+ and the serial port instance. The options are the same
+ as documented for the ttyS addressing above.
+
+ The mapping of the serial ports to the tty instances
+ can be viewed with:
+
+ $ ls -d /sys/bus/serial-base/devices/*:*.*/tty/*
+ /sys/bus/serial-base/devices/00:04:0.0/tty/ttyS0
+
+ In the above example, the console can be addressed with
+ console=00:04:0.0. Note that a console addressed this
+ way will only get added when the related device driver
+ is ready. The use of an earlycon parameter in addition to
+ the console may be desired for console output early on.
