[RFC] [PATCH] earlier printk output

This patch creates console devices specifically for use during early
boot, and registers them so that printk() output may be seen prior
to console_init().

The patch is available from:

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/wli/early_printk/

Included are i386 config options, early VGA text output, and early i386
serial output.

Cheers,
Bill
