    davinci: use 32-bit accesses for low-level debug macros · 17eb1570

    This patch defines debug macros for low-level debugging for Davinci
    based platforms
    
    Tested on :
            - DM644x DaVinci EVM
            - DM646X DaVinciHD EVM
    	- DM355 EVM
    
    This patch attempts to solve the low-level debug issue in DM646x. The
    UART on DM646x SoC allows only 32-bit access. The existing
    debug-macro.S uses the macros from debug-8250.S file. This led to
    garbage serial out in the case of DM646x.
    
    The inclusion of debug-8250.S does not allow for run time fix for this
    issue.  There are compile time errors due to multiple definitions of
    the macros.  Also when building a single image for multiple DaVinci
    Platforms, the ifdefs cannot be relied upon.
    
    The solution below does not include the debug-8250.S file and defines
    the necessary macros. This solution was arrived at after observing
    that word access does not affect the low-level debug messages on
    DM644x/DM355.
    
    The other approach to this issue is to use the UART module information
    available in the peripheral registers to decide the access
    mechanism. But this will have to be done for every access of UART
    specifically for DM646x. Also this calls for a modification of the
    debug-8250.S file.
