hardwaremain: Move init_timer() call to before console init
The 8250 MMIO uart driver calls udelay, and if that is the first call then it will also call printk in init_timer() which can result in a deadlock trying to acquire the console lock. There are a few options to prevent this: 1) remove the printk in init_timer which removes a useful debug message 2) change the udelay() to cpu_relax() in uart8250mem.c 3- move the init_timer() call in ramstage main() to be called earlier Since hardwaremain.c:main() already has an explicit call to init_timer() on x86 it is an easy change to move this to happen before the console is initialized.
