Not closing stdin/stdout has caused real bugs with Linux on pSeries.
I thought that was a pmac problem, but I see from linux that it is

Not closing stdin/stdout has caused real bugs with Linux on pSeries.
After much hair loss, it was discovered that a USB controller was
DMAing
over kernel memory in very very early boot, which doesn't sound like a
problem I'd like to debug, so I don't like this patch.
Can we create a platform blacklist for this logic?
We don't have a concept of platform yet, so we are just maple and
JS2x and this patch is sufficient, and tested.
prom_init.c suggests that it is safe to always close stdin for these
platforms so I'll put the close back in.
agreed?
