A few side benefits of this patch:
- printk() now works directly after printk_buffer_init(), even before
the serial port is set up.
- If all you want is a log, you don't have to bother with serial output.
- A payload can read and analyze the log.
- You can build on this and buffer log until serial is available, then
flush the messages buffered so far.
