This causes that register_console() will always put the console into
console_list. It causes regression, see below.
Agreed. Nice catch. I will remove initializing with CON_ENABLED.

My understanding is that this should enable the console
when debug=nfcon kernel parameter is used.
It is a non-standard way. This is why CON_ENABLED flag
has to be explicitly set.
Understood. I will add a comment explaining why CON_ENABLED is set here.

This calls register_console() when it was not already
registered by the debug=nfcon early parameter.
It is the standard way. It should enable the console only
when console=nfcon is defined on the commandline. Or when
there is no preferred console and no console enabled by default yet.
We should not pre-set CON_ENABLED in this case.
Agreed. The hunk itself is OK.
