x86/earlyprintk: Add support for earlyprintk via USB3 debug port

Add support for earlyprintk by writing debug messages to the
USB3 debug port. Users can use this type of early printk by
specifying the kernel parameter of "earlyprintk=xdbc". This
gives users a chance of providing debugging output.

The hardware for USB3 debug port requires DMA memory blocks.
This requires to delay setting up debugging hardware and
registering boot console until the memblocks are filled.

earlyprintk is useful when the kernel crashes before
the normal console is initialized. It is not enabled by
