The ACPI SPCR code has been used to define an earlycon console for arm64
and can be used for x86.

Modify the ACPI SPCR parsing code to account for console behaviour
differences between arm64 and x86.  Initialize the SPCR code from
x86 ACPI initialization code.

So if earlycon==true but enable_console==false, then you parse SPCR
and use it for the early console, but not the primary console?  I'm
not sure what that gives you.

On arm64 the original SPCR code provides both early and primary consoles (as
you've pointed out).  IOW, if SPRC exists on arm64 a console will be
initialized.  That is still the case after my change.

The expected behaviour on x86 is that unless someone specifies 'earlycon' or
'console=' that no console should be initialized.  There are users (some IOT
boxes, etc.) that do NOT want a console.

The above code keeps the existing x86 behaviour.

P.
