Dear Joe Hershberger,
This allows the default console to be specified as the nulldev. This is specifically helpful when the real serial console's init() cannot run early in the boot process. When the init can be run, then the console can be switched to the real device using the std* env vars.

Isn't it actually better to have null stdio device? Some systems might not even use serial port (and so null serial will be useless on these systems)!
