[PATCH v2 07/45] spl: Add a separate silence option for SPL

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Thu Oct 13 14:28:49 CEST 2022


Add an option to allow silent console to be controlled separately in SPL,
so that boot progress can be shown. Disable it by default for sandbox
since it is useful to see what is going on there.
