I have no comments on the content of the patch(es).
I have applied these patches to a kernel derived from
linux-m68k git tree at kernel.org (m68k-queue as at 02 Mar).
I have tested the patches with MVME167 board configured for
diskless operation. The configurations tried were:
a. earlyprintk set and not set on the kernel
command line,
b. CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK set and not set,
c. CONFIG_SERIAL_CONSOLE set and not set.
