Subject: powerpc: console_initcall ordering issues
From: Milton Miller <miltonm@xxxxxxx>
The add_preferred_console call in rtas_console.c was not causing the
console to be selected. It turns out that the add_preferred_console was
being called after the hvc_console driver was registered. It only works
when it is called before the console driver is registered.
Reorder hvc_console.o after the hvc_console drivers to allow the selection
during console_initcall processing.
