I don't  know.

Actually this patch causes a problem on e.g. armadillo and kzm9g, where
serial console output suddenly stops on halt/reboot:

| # halt
|
| Broadcast message from root@armadillo (ttySC1) (Tue Aug 25 14:52:35 2015):
| The system is going down for system halt NOW!
| INIT: Switching to runlevel: 0
| INIT: Sending process

After reverting, it continues again with:

| es the TERM signal
| [info] Using makefile-style concurrent boot in runlevel 0.
| [ ok ] Asking all remaining processes to terminate...done.
| [ ok ] All processes ended within 1 seconds...done.
| [ ok ] Stopping enhanced syslogd: rsyslogd.
| [ ok ] Stopping NFS common utilities: idmapd statd.
| rpcbind: rpcbind terminating on signal. Restart with "rpcbind -w"
| [ ok ] Stopping rpcbind daemon....
| [....] not deconfiguring network interfaces: network file systems
still mounted.[war (warning).
| [info] Saving the system clock.
| [info] Hardware Clock updated to Tue Aug 25 14:56:18 CEST 2015.
| [ ok ] Deactivating swap...done.
| [info] Will now halt.
| reboot: System halted

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
