Eric W. Biederman 2bd3a997be init: Open /dev/console from rootfs
To avoid potential problems with an empty /dev open /dev/console
from rootfs instead of waiting to mount our root filesystem and
mounting it there.   This effectively guarantees that there will
be a device node, and it won't be on a filesystem that we will
ever unmount, so there are no issues with leaving /dev/console
open and pinning the filesystem.

This is actually more effective than automatically mounting
devtmpfs on /dev because it removes removes the occasionally
problematic assumption that /dev/console exists from the boot
code.

With this patch I was able to throw busybox on my /boot partition
(which has no /dev directory) and boot into userspace without
problems.

The only possible negative consequence I can think of is that
someone out there deliberately used did not use a character device
that is major 5 minor 2 for /dev/console.  Does anyone know of a
situation in which that could make sense?
