Yes, you're right, and as it was not an oversight, just forget this patch...

Thanks,

IIRC clearly, I've left them out because they are basically already
tested with the prom-env test. I was a little bit afraid that the
testing time would become too long, but since this test is quite fast,
and it makes sense to check whether the serial output is working, too, I
think it's also OK if you add them here.

Two thoughts though:

1) I think you do *not* need the "-nographic" here, because the test is
using the "-serial" parameter to get the output of the serial console.

2) While you're at it, you could enable the test for a sparc and a
sparc64 machine, too (preferably one that is not tested by the prom-env
test yet)
