the following patch was just integrated into master: commit f7fcb2056f2ddf151517366a4caf2b6c52b0d920 Author: Hung-Te Lin hungte@chromium.org Date: Thu Feb 7 13:41:56 2013 +0800
console: Always allow setting "EARLY_CONSOLE" configuration.
Early console should always be allowed to be turned on / off (for generating production and debug versions), and should not be enforced by "select" Kconfig rule.
A new "DEFAULT_EARLY_CONSOLE" is introduced for devices to select if they prefer early console output by default.
Verified Kconfig value on qemu/x86 (default y by CACHE_AS_RAM), snow/x86 (default y by EXYNOS5 config), and intel/jarrell (default n).
