The following patch against misc-embedded.c adds an INTERACTIVE_CONSOLE
#define to guard reading from console (causes unecessary delay in some
situations).

Its an adaptation of misc.c's define, a difference being that platform
headers define "NO_INTERACTIVE_CONSOLE" if required.

What do you think?

Please put a comment above the #ifndef stating where the define should
be.  But I have a feeling that's going to be somewhere under
arch/ppc/platforms/ or include/asm-ppc/ and I don't know if that's a
good idea...

arch/ppc/platforms/ surely. You have a problem with that?

I've got a vauge idea on how we can handle this a little bit more
cleanly, in the merge tree.

How's that? Should I cancel the patch, then?
