QEMU console might get fixed in the kernel, but it looks like LPAR could
have a similar problem (don't have access to test this). So it seems
better (and future proof) to fix this on the Debian side too. I have
updated the merge request to trigger the new code only on s390x as
suggested:

I have unmerged the bugs now, so the sparc one can be closed.
