+			Use the specified serial port on the serial core bus.
+			The addressing uses DEVNAME of the physical serial port
+			device, followed by the serial core controller instance,
+			and the serial port instance. The options are the same
+			as documented for the ttyS addressing above.
+
+			The mapping of the serial ports to the tty instances
+			can be viewed with:
+
+			$ ls -d /sys/bus/serial-base/devices/*:*.*/tty/*
+			/sys/bus/serial-base/devices/00:04:0.0/tty/ttyS0
+
+			In the above example, the console can be addressed with
+			console=00:04:0.0. Note that a console addressed this
+			way will only get added when the related device driver
+			is ready. The use of an earlycon parameter in addition to
+			the console may be desired for console output early on.
