register_console() is called from uart_add_one_port()->uart_configure_port() that's why register_console() is called twice. This patch remove console_initcall to call register_console() only from one location. Also based on my tests cdns_uart_console_setup() is not called from the first register_console() call. Signed-off-by: Michal Simek <redacted> --- I am not quite sure about this because console_initcall is called early but I can see any difference in usage. pl011 is not calling this but others are doing it.
Doesn't this break early console/printk? I would expect that the UART initialization may happen later than console init. S?ren
