Hmm, interesting and puzzling.

If you disable console kthreads (__printk_fallback_preferred_direct) and
keep 10e14073107d, are you able to successfully boot the board or does it
boot to a panic?

Is it console lock (console_kthreads_block() -> mutex_lock(&con->lock))
that we cannot grab or is it console semaphore?
