Hello,
This version addresses comments by Gerd and Michael:
- instead of returning -EPIPE if host is not connected in the write
case, just block the write if it's a blocking file and return -EAGAIN
if it's non-blocking.
- Removes early_console_printk after the first console is found
- Adds early_put_chars fix by François Diakhaté. It still needs a
sign-off by him.
Standard message: Since the ABI is being reworked, it's essential to
push this to 2.6.34 so that we're not left supporting the older
interface.
