I'm pretty sure I've stumbled upon this several times without knowing what hit me.

Due to the complexities of modern Qualcomm SoCs, about a half dozen drivers must successfully probe before the clocks for the console are present, and the console can successfully probe. Depending on several random factors such as probe order and modules vs builtin, msm_serial may not be able to successfully probe for some, at which point, __init annotated functions may become unmapped. If this occurs, msm_console_setup() will be called from the probe path, but will no longer exist, resulting in a kernel panic. Resolve this issue by removing the __init annotation from msm_console_setup().
