[PATCH 3/4] ppc64: add RTAS console driver

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Thu Aug 18 2005 - 12:53:23 EST


The RTAS console driver can be used by all machines that abstract
the system console through the {get,put}-term-char interface.
It replaces the hvconsole on BPA, because we don't run under
a hypervisor.

This driver needs to be redone as a special case of hvconsole,
so there is no point in applying the patch to generic kernels.
You will however need it if you intend to run on present Cell
hardware.
