That's what OPT_CONSOLE_STR is for.

- It gives the ns16550 parameters reasonable defaults (8n1).
- If baud is unspecified, do not reconfigure the ns16550 baud rate (use
whatever firmware was using).


Okay.

- It allows us to automatically configure ns16550 parameters
("com1=baud,..."). All parameters are optional (so you can selectively
override the defaults).

I'll give you a run-time method to specify override strings foropt_com1 and opt_com2.
