+	 * basis for a real console driver. Console drivers in Trusted Firmware
+	 * can be instantiated multiple times. Each instance is described by a
+	 * separate console_t structure which must be registered with the common
+	 * console framework via console_register(). Console drivers should
+	 * define a console_xxx_register() function that initializes a new
+	 * console_t structure passed in from the caller and registers it after
+	 * initializing the console hardware. Drivers may define their own
+	 * structures extending console_t to store private driver information.
+	 * Console drivers *MUST* take care that the console callbacks they
+	 * implement only change registers allowed in the clobber lists defined
+	 * in this file. (Note that in addition to the explicit clobber lists,
+	 * any function may always clobber the intra-procedure-call registers
+	 * X16 and X17, but may never depend on them retaining their values
+	 * across any function call.)
+	 * Platforms using drivers based on this template need to enable
