Ick, really?  What relies on this print message?  Why do we need a whole
new uart port hook for this?

Isn't there some other way for your specific variant to print out
another message if you really want to do something "odd" like this?

And you did not document what your new change did anywhere in the tree,
so people are going to be confused.

I've taken the other patches here, but not this one.

thanks,
