That sentence missed an 'any'. But I've now attached a serial, here is
the output:

------
Don't ask me, why some lines are twice there. I assume it's because I
have earlycon and earlyprintk enabled in the command line. I've never
used the serial before to debug a kernel on x86, I just have experience
debugging ARMs using the serial. ;)

Alexander
