RAM console init needs some platform stuff to be taken in to consideration.
That pstuff should be done at platform dev initialization [where memory
occupied by ram console needs to specify]
The occupied memory should be with-in that mem-mapped model of particular
h/w.
If you want you can find the sample code that init the ram_console
[platform spec]
static struct resource ram_console_resources[] = {
{
.start = XXXX_BASE,
.end = XXXX_BASE + PAGE_SIZE - 1,
.flags = IORESOURCE_MEM,
}
};
static struct platform_device ram_console_device = {
.name = "ram_console,
.id = 0,
.num_resources = ARRAY_SIZE(ram_console_resources),
.resource = ram_console_resources,
};
struct platform_device *devices[] __initdata = {
.......................................
........
ram_console_device,
};

Jagan.
