Re: kernel hang during reboot when cmdline include a non-exist console device

There's a bugzilla for this, but let's just move it to reguilar email,
unless some of you want to track it that way.

The bugzilla entry says

"When reboot, the capslock key of thinkpad x1 starts blinking"

which sounds like there's an oops that just isn't showing, quite
possibly because the console has already been shut down.

I didn't test this out, and would sincerely hope that somebody else is
willing to follow up on it since I'm in the busiest part of the merge
window.
