When using Ski to debug early startup, it's a bit of a pain not to have printk. This patch enables the simulated console very early. It may be worth conditionalising on the command line... but this is enough for now. Signed-off-by: Peter Chubb <peterc@gelato.unsw.edu.au> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
