Re: [PATCH v3] console/serial: bump buffer from 16K to 128K



Hi Roger,

Testing on a Kaby Lake box with 8 CPUs leads to the serial buffer

Increasing the buffer to 128K does fix the issue and Linux boot
messages are no longer dropped.  There's no justification either on
why 16K was chosen, and hence bumping to 128K in order to cope with
current systems generating output faster does seem appropriate to have
a better user experience with the provided defaults.

I will commit it in a couple of days if there are no objection.
