oh... didn't notice there was a dmesg.xz attached.


ok, so everything is "doubled" in your dmesg, starting from "console [ttyS0] enabled" line

looking at your Kernel command line

- earlyprintk=ttyS0,115200

- console=tty0


so you have two consoles: ttyS0 and tty0?


and I see "bootconsole [earlyser0] enabled" but no "bootconsole [earlyser0] disabled" message, which
I'd expect to see...

So how may consoles do you have? 2 or 3? so call_console_drivers() has to ->write()
every log line N times; at least to ttyS0->write() and to tty0->write()?
