This patch is changing our python infrastructure that invokes QEMU, not QEMU itself. What Philippe's message means is "currently our code for running QEMU as part of tests like this is limited to using the first serial console; this doesn't work for raspi because we want to use the second (aux) console; so make the test infrastructure able to handle machines like this." thanks -- PMM
