et voilà, the screen came alive and the kernel panic was revealed! It seems
the kernel panics so fast that the PS3 frame buffer is unprepared. This is,
of course, very unfortunate because trying to debug the boot process without
a screen or any other means of obtaining console text is quite difficult.

What about letting ps3fb register a panic notifier to sync the screen, like
hyperv_fb does?

Seems like the thing to do.  Fredrik, do you want to try it?  Otherwise, I'll
work on it when I have some time.
