This is strange, the problematic patch should use ttynull
only as a fallback. It should not be used when a particular console
is defined on the command line.
The only explanation would be that ttyS0 gets registered too late
and ttynull is added as a fallback in the meantime.
Anyway, I propose the revert the problematic patch for 5.11-rc3,
see
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210107164400.17904-2-pmladek@suse.com/
This mystery is a good reason to avoid bigger changes at this stage.
Best Regards,
Petr
