serial module in 2.3.x?

[Andreas Tobler]

Additional follow up,
I enabled the xmon without video driver enabled:

It works but, I can't see the output, only the line breaks. Means, if I
type 't' for bt I get some line breaks but no screen output.
This is done under 2.3.50-pre2, which is the same, more or less as
2.3.49 from bk.
The behaviour of not showing me the xmon output I saw under 2.3.48 lc,
bk and stock.
