x86: Allow use of serial soon after relocation

At present on x86 machines with use cache-as-RAM, the memory goes away just
before board_init_r() is called. This means that serial drivers are
no-longer unavailable, until initr_dm() it called, etc.

Any attempt to use printf() within this period will cause a hang.

To fix this, mark the serial devices as 'unavailable' when it is no-longer
available. Bring it back when serial_initialize() is called. This means that
the debug UART will be used instead for this period.
