I don't think any of the default configs included in u-boot would have
broken, while some of them define CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE, none of them
define CONFIG_SILENT_U_BOOT_ONLY. I was working with a freescale mx28evk
prototyping something that will eventually be a custom board, and I
modified the config to drop u-boot output but not drop the linux kernel
output. It was working fine with a git checkout from late May, and I
noticed when I tried out the latest release it wouldn't compile anymore
as it tried to call a symbol that was never defined.

So it was really only broken for a custom config, but as the behavior is
documented in doc/README.silent, I assume it's still desirable for it to
work :).

Thanks...
