[U-Boot] The abortboot routine misses key hits issued via netconsole.

If I understand your message correctly you did not try changing this
10ms delay?

I mean, functionally it makes no difference if we implement the 1
second delay loop as 100 iterations of 10 ms or as 1,000 iterations
of 1 ms or as 10,000 iterations of 100 us. OK, the shorter the delay
the worse the accuracy due to the per-loop overhead, but this could be
easily fixed if it really was a problem.

Maybe you can try of 1000*1ms or 10,000*0.1ms works for you?

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
