- * early-8250 requires BASE_BAUD to be defined and includes this header.
- * We put in a typical value:
- *      (core clk / 16) - i.e. UART samples 16 times per sec.
- * Athough in multi-platform-image this might not work, specially if the
- * clk driving the UART is different.
- * We can't use DeviceTree as this is typically for early serial.
+ * early 8250 (now earlycon) requires BASE_BAUD to be defined in this header.
+ * However to still determine it dynamically (for multi-platform images)
+ * we do this in a helper by parsing the FDT early
