If an earlycon console driver needs to acquire the uart_port.lock
spinlock for serial console output, and CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y:

Initialize the spinlock in of_setup_earlycon() and register_earlycon(),
to fix this for both DT-based and legacy earlycon.  If the driver would
reinitialize the spinlock again, this is harmless, as it's allowed to
reinitialize an unlocked spinlock.

Alternatives are:
  - Drivers having an early_serial_console_write() that only performs
    the core functionality of serial_console_write(), without acquiring
    the lock (which may be unsafe, depending on the hardware),
  - Drivers initializing the spinlock in their private earlycon setup
    functions.

As uart_port is owned by generic serial_core, and uart_port.lock is
initialized by uart_add_one_port() for the normal case, this can better
be handled in the earlycon core.

Just to be clear here: the uart_port used by the earlycon is unrelated
to the eventual uart_port instanced by the driver (which may provide
the console that replaces the earlycon).

That means the spinlocks won't prevent concurrent h/w programming between
the earlycon and the driver.
