We end up doing this in a couple of places; perhaps we should have something
like:
	/*
	 * Before multiple console support, we always had a single console.
	 * Code paths without those features can use this.
	 */
	static struct port *old_style_unique_console(void)
	{
		return find_port_by_vtermno(0);
	}

I still dislike kzalloc.  I think I've said this before :)

Thanks,
