The documentation of > `register_console()` in `kernel/printk/printk.c` confirms that: I guess your console has CON_PRINTBUFFER flag set, so we flush all pending kernel messages on this console after registration. Off the top of my head, you might want to play with the default console loglevel so that we will suppress printing of most of the messages.
