Dear Doug Anderson,

If you would like the old behavior of having bootm modify the bootargs to silence the linux console when CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, you now need to define the config CONFIG_DEPRECATED_SILENT_LINUX_CONSOLE. A previous change already added this new config to all known users of CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE.
...
When CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE is defined, all console
messages (by U-Boot and Linux!) can be silenced withthe "silent" environment variable. Seedoc/README.silent for more information.
messages can be silenced with the "silent" environmentvariable. See doc/README.silent for more information.
The "silent" environment variable changes only the U-Boot behaviour.
How do you silence Linux when you do not change the boot arguments?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

The connection between the language in which we think/program and the
problems and solutions we can imagine is very close. For this reason
restricting language features with the intent of eliminating pro-
grammer errors is at best dangerous.
