I just looked again, and it was only used once.  It makes sense where it was
used, but I don't think it makes sense to use it other places, and I think
naming it with the same prefix and including it in the same list makes that
likely in the future.

I think a comment explaining BIOS_SPEW+1 would work just as well, or this:
BIOS_NEVER -> CONFIG_MAXIMUM_CONSOLE_LOGLEVEL+1

Thanks,
Myles
