[PATCH] x86/boot: validate console=uart8250 baud rate to avoid early boot hang

[Thorsten Blum]

When the baud rate is empty, 0, invalid, or overflows to 0 when stored
as an int, the system will hang during early boot because of a division
by zero in early_serial_init().

Fall back to DEFAULT_BAUD when the resulting baud rate is 0 to prevent
an early system hang.

Fixes: ce0aa5dd20e4 ("x86, setup: Make the setup code also accept console=uart8250")
