New Revision: 255424
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/255424

Log:
  Make the primary name of the OF console device /dev/ofwcons, and only
  alias it to the contents of the output property if it is defined. This
  avoids a panic when booting machines (QEMU) where the output-device
  property is not defined.
  
  Since output-device is free-form and potentially conflicts with other
  entries in /dev, I also am not sure we should be doing the aliasing at
  all, but this at least makes things work again.
