I have made now some tests and have figured out that on the slow booting
kernels the console output is slow too. For example on "time dmesg" the
slow kernels needs 3.5 seconds of real time while the fast kernels needs
only 1 second of real time. Could it be that the slow console output
causes the boot delay (I'm using
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="elevator=cfq" so I'm getting more output
than usual on booting)?

On testing the kernels I'm seeing a fast console output on linux-
image-3.13.1-031301-generic (3.13.1-031301.201401291035) but not on
linux-image-3.13.2-031302-generic (3.13.2-031302.201402061638). Also on
the first one I'm seeing specific dmesg entries much earlier but the
total booting time isn't that fast too. That makes me unsure if this
issue has really something to do with the booting problem. Possibly this
problem should be bisected first to test if after a fix the booting
delay still exists on recent kernels?
