Sudeep Holla aea9a80ba9 tty: serial: pl011: add ttyAMA for matching pl011 console
Commit c7cef0a849 ("console: Add extensible console matching") added
match() method to struct console which allows the console to perform
console command line matching instead of (or in addition to) default
console matching (ie., by fixed name and index).

Commit ad1696f6f0 ("ACPI: parse SPCR and enable matching console")
introduced support for SPCR as matching console.

Commit 10879ae5f1 ("serial: pl011: add console matching function")
added the match method for pl011 console which checks for the console
string to be "pl011"

Now on a platform which has both SPCR in the ACPI tables and ttyAMA in
the command line, the ttyAMA is chosen as "selected console" but it
doesn't pass the matching console method which results in CON_CONSDEV
not being set on the "selected console".

As a result of that, the bootconsole(SPCR in the above case) is not
unregistered and all the beginning boot messages are seen twice.

This patch adds "ttyAMA" so that it's considered to match pl011 console.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
