    [PATCH] fix console ordering default · b85b717c
    Andrew Morton authored
    The conversion of the console registration to an initcall-style thing has
    broken lots of people's setups.  It is now dependent upon linkage order and
    if you have both CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE and CONFIG_SERIAL_CONSOLE, no boot
    messages come out on the screen because the kernel is selecting the serial
    console first.
    
    It can be fixed by specifying console=tty0, but nobody is doing that.
    
    We can fix it up by placing drivers/char/ in front of drivers/serial/ in
    linkage order.
