The console subsystem already has an idea of a boot console, using the CON_BOOT flag. The implementation has some flaws though. The major problem is that presence of a boot console makes register_console() ignore any other console devices (unless explicitly specified on the kernel command line). This patch fixes the console selection code to *not* consider a boot console a full-featured one, so the first non-boot console registering will become the default console instead. This way the unregister call for the boot console in the register_console() function actually triggers and the handover from the boot console to the real console device works smoothly. Added a printk for the handover, so you know which console device the output goes to when the boot console stops printing messages. The disable_early_printk() call is obsolete with that patch, explicitly disabling the early console isn't needed any more as it works automagically with that patch. I've walked through the tree, dropped all disable_early_printk() instances found below arch/ and tagged the consoles with CON_BOOT if needed. The code is tested on x86, sh (thanks to Paul) and mips (thanks to Ralf). Changes to last version: Rediffed against -rc3, adapted to mips cleanups by Ralf, fixed "udbg-immortal" cmd line arg on powerpc.
