Just fixed both issues at our code-base and I'm also uploading updated
images at people.canonical.com/~rsalveti/aosp/hammerhead/ (upload
should be completed in ~10 minutes).

I removed the console as it's indeed not useful for us, and I'm now
loading the wireless driver as a module (during init), which is enough
as at that time persist is already mounted.

Nexus 5 still has a bunch of issues, which I'll try to investigate
more during the weekend (everything is already public at
code-review.phablet.ubuntu.com, but still needs to be approved).

Cheers,
