Regression: commit e696c68363740d3a8fe495e353de3ff26b86257a prevents Linux 3.13 from booting on Lenovo X1 Carbon.

Hello,

I have bisected the boot failure of a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon to the
merge ea4ebd1cb093c8ec5d7f4bf9070dc444184c3971.  What I call "boot
failure" refers to the fact that no console is shown, the machine only
reads from the disc for a very short time, and the machine does not
respond to Ctrl-Alt-Del, etc.

As it turns out reverting e696c68363740d3a8fe495e353de3ff26b86257a
(Input: serio - fix sysfs layout) on top of v3.13 makes the machine boot
again.  So far I have now clue how this commit can affect early boot
/ showing of the console.

Does it ring any bells for you?

Please find the .config used attached.

Best Regards,
Jens
