printk: handle blank console arguments passed in. [ Upstream commit 48021f98130880dd74286459a1ef48b5e9bc374f ] If uboot passes a blank string to console_setup then it results in a trashed memory. Ultimately, the kernel crashes during freeing up the memory. This fix checks if there is a blank parameter being passed to console_setup from uboot. In case it detects that the console parameter is blank then it doesn't setup the serial device and it gracefully exits.
