[Bug 589123] [NEW] early printk over EHCI not enabled in configuration...

[Daniel J Blueman]

Public bug reported:

In current Maverick and mainline kernels, CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK_DBGP is
unset, preventing debugging boot and/or runtime issues where no legacy
serial console is available (eg laptops, legacy free motherboards etc).
Since legacy serial has had it's day, this is becoming a more universal
way to debug as it requires no additional hardware.

Since CONFIG_USB_SERIAL_DEBUG is already set, the additional code for
using this as the USB serial debug mechanism as a console is small, thus
the real-world impact is zero. Note that EARLY_PRINTK_DBGP is needed for
the non-'early' console.

Please enable in mainline and Ubuntu Maverick kernels.
