[PATCH master] serial: ns16550: add missing Linux console names

[Ahmad Fatoum]

The OMAP earlycon and the regular jz4740 console names were not
populated, which meant barebox couldn't fix them up correctly.

For example on a Beagleplay, global.bootm.earlycon=1 caused:

  commandline: earlycon=<NULL>,mmio,0x2800000 console=ttyS2,115200n8

Populate the missing members to fix this.
