LOL :) Applied the commit below to tip/x86/debug, thanks Bill!
Does the 'kernel alive' right before it serve any purpose either?
that has some marginal use: it shows that we are past the really basic
system setup code, we decompressed the kernel and entered protected mode
with boot paging enabled.
we had bugs in the past where we'd hang/crash after GRUB starts us and
before we reach this printk.
OTOH ... forcing it upon all users is strong. Feel free to send another
patch that removes it.
