Well let me tell you about the circumstances:

I
 use these Images for an embedded system without any console at all, but
 of a serial debug port (for developing). So if the development phase is
 finished then I really need absolutely no output in any boot sequence 
or anytime later, since nobody will read it at all. Because, the actual 
aim: I want to have my system booting as fast as any possible, that 
means excluding all unused features (here: it's the output).

Now, if you think the patch you mentioned could help me, by disabling all 
output but keep everything else in the same way as it was, then I would 
really appreciate that if you could share it.

Thank you
