Indeed.
this is a leftover from introducing relocation to arm. I also just could think of using a "PCI console" before relocation... and if I looked right, this is not used on any arm plattform ...
And even if it was used - it would have to be handled the same way like console over Ethernet or USB: the console device becomes available only after relocation in such configurations.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
