Revert "Documentation: kernel-parameters: Add DEVNAME:0.0 format for serial ports"

This reverts commit 5c3a766e.

Let's roll back all of the serial core and printk console changes that
went into 6.10-rc1 as there still are problems with them that need to be
sorted out.

<DEVNAME>:<n>.<n>[,options]
Use the specified serial port on the serial core bus.
The addressing uses DEVNAME of the physical serial port
device, followed by the serial core controller instance,
and the serial port instance. The options are the same
as documented for the ttyS addressing above.
The mapping of the serial ports to the tty instances
can be viewed with:
$ ls -d /sys/bus/serial-base/devices/*:*.*/tty/*
/sys/bus/serial-base/devices/00:04:0.0/tty/ttyS0
In the above example, the console can be addressed with
console=00:04:0.0. Note that a console addressed this
way will only get added when the related device driver
is ready. The use of an earlycon parameter in addition to
the console may be desired for console output early on.
