That is a good question. With CONFIG_PCI=y I can select virtio-gpu and dummy-console.
IIRC the issue was that with patch 3 we can have the situation where we have
CONFIG_VT = y and CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=n and this will crash early during boot as
conswitchp is NULL. This patches goal was to always enable dummy console even without
PCI, but it obviously fails to do so.
So what about allowing CONFIG_VT on s390 only if we have PCI?
