Subject: hvc_vio: Do not override preferred console set by kernel parameter
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1926d0aeecf0280c67bf7464b2d68fe4e92c566b;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

hvc_vio: Do not override preferred console set by kernel parameter

The original version of this was done by Bastian Blank, who wrote:
