Michael Walle 65e20e8cbb earlycon: prevent multiple register_console()
If the earlycon parameter is given twice, the kernel will spit out a
WARN() in register_console() because it was already registered. The
non-dt variant setup_earlycon() already handles that gracefully. The dt
variant of_setup_earlycon() doesn't. Add the check there and add the
-EALREADY handling in early_init_dt_scan_chosen_stdout().

FWIW, this doesn't happen if CONFIG_ACPI_SPCR_TABLE is set. In that case
the registration is delayed until after earlycon parameter(s) are
parsed.
