For these cases I use, earlyprintk=ttyS0,keep

Actually, the RT patch has a option to force all printk()s to be
earlyprintk directly. I have a separate patch that has a special
spinlock to keep SMP from stomping all over the output. It's special
because it locks per CPU, if an NMI comes in while the current context
has the lock and is printing, it will corrupt the buffer being printed,
but I don't care at that moment. If NMI is doing printks, its message
will be more important anyway.
