+- Pre-Console Buffer:
+ Prior to the console being initialised (i.e. serial UART
+ initialised etc) all console output is silently discarded.
+ Defining CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER will cause U-Boot to
+ buffer any console messages prior to the console being
+ initialised to a buffer of size CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
+ bytes located at CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR. The buffer is
+ a circular buffer, so if more than CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ
+ bytes are output before the console is initialised, the
+ earlier bytes are discarded.

+ 'Sane' compilers will generate smaller code if
+ CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ is a power of 2
