This reverts commit d03516df837587368fc6e75591f6329c072b9eb5. From
Documentation/serial-console.txt we can know that serial port becomes
the system console only when it appears in the kernel parameters as the
last console device. But commit d03516df837587 adds a CON_CONSDEV flag
to univ8250_console and breaks this convention. After that either we
use "console=tty console=ttyS0" or "console=ttyS0 console=tty", serial
port will always be the system console.
