I don't think that's correct, because ...

... the above line I think is only ever printed if we're not deferred
anymore:
- One such printk is in fbcon_remap_all(), but after checking for
  deferred_takeover and bailing out if that's set.
- The other is in do_fb_registered -> fbcon_select_primary (but only if
  CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_DETECT_PRIMARY is set), which is before we check for
  deferred_takeover. But if deferred_takeover is set that path should
  print

  		pr_info("fbcon: Deferring console take-over\n");

  which does not seem to be the case.

But then I have no idea why deferred fbcon could have any impact at all.
Really puzzling.
