serial: pl011: Fix oops on -EPROBE_DEFER

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1895174
commit 27afac93e3bd7fa89749cf11da5d86ac9cde4dba upstream.

If probing of a pl011 gets deferred until after free_initmem(), an oops
ensues because pl011_console_match() is called which has been freed.

Fix by removing the __init attribute from the function and those it
calls.

Commit 10879ae5f12e ("serial: pl011: add console matching function")
introduced pl011_console_match() not just for early consoles but
regular preferred consoles, such as those added by acpi_parse_spcr().
Regular consoles may be registered after free_initmem() for various
reasons, one being deferred probing, another being dynamic enablement
of serial ports using a DeviceTree overlay.

Thus, pl011_console_match() must not be declared __init and the
functions it calls mustn't either.

Stack trace for posterity:
