Title:
  VIRTIO_CONSOLE=y on armhf

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in “linux” source package in Saucy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  SRU Justification:

  Impact: Qemu mach-virt requires VIRTIO_CONSOLE=y as is the only
  available console option there, and having it as =m doesn't let you
  see the boot messages until initrd is mounted

  Fix: apply the attached config patch and recompile a kernel

  Testcase:

  try booting a qemu mach-virt instance with and without a patched
  kernel
