Ard Biesheuvel 8b3a149db4 efi: earlycon: Reprobe after parsing config tables ...

Commit 732ea9db9d ("efi: libstub: Move screen_info handling to common
code") reorganized the earlycon handling so that all architectures pass
the screen_info data via a EFI config table instead of populating struct
screen_info directly, as the latter is only possible when the EFI stub
is baked into the kernel (and not into the decompressor).

However, this means that struct screen_info may not have been populated
yet by the time the earlycon probe takes place, and this results in a
non-functional early console.

So let's probe again right after parsing the config tables and
populating struct screen_info. Note that this means that earlycon output
starts a bit later than before, and so it may fail to capture issues
that occur while doing the early EFI initialization.
