To share the same kernel image amon different machines we have added the
machtype command line support.
In the old serial port implementation the UART base address is hardcoded as
a macro in machine.h which breaks with machtype, so change that to discover
the address dynamically. Also move the initialization of the UART base
address to uart_base.c to avoid remapping twice for early_printk.c and
serial.c.

This patch add serial port support for all of the existing loongson
family machines. most of the board specific part are put in serial.c,
and the base address of the serial ports are defined as macros in
machine.h for sharing it between serial.c and early_printk.c

The difference between some loongson-based machines is very small, so, if
there is no necessary to add new kernel config options to cope with this
difference, it will be better to share the same kernel image file between
them, benefit from this, the linux distribution developers only have a need
to compile the kernel one time.
This machtype kernel command line argument will be used later to share the
same kernel image file between two different machines(menglong & yeeloong)
made by lemote.
Thanks very much to Zhang Le for cleaning up the machtype implementation.

To share common loongson source code between all of the loongson-based
machines. there is a need to split it out of the fuloong-2e/ directory.
at the same time, other according tuning is needed. the machine-specific
parts are defined as macros in relative header file, pci.h, mem.h,
machine.h.
