It runs before the command line parsing, and so /does not/ take preference. I thought.
/** * add_preferred_console - add a device to the list of preferred consoles. ... * The last preferred console added will be used for kernel messages * and stdin/out/err for init.
The last console will be added by the console= parsing, and so that will be used. The console we add in the pseries setup is only used if nothing is specified on the command line.
