During that time a message about the switch-over is printed. With some combinations of chips, firmware and drivers, such as the DEC DZ11 clone used with the DECstation, a hang may happen because the firmware used for the initial console may not expect the state of the chip after it has been initialised by the driver. This is a workaround for the DZ11 which reuses the power-management callback to keep the transmitter of the line associated with the console enabled. It reflects the consensus reached in a discussion a while ago. Signed-off-by: Maciej W.
