Because of crashes in multiplatform kernels when it is enabled.

Hm yes. The disabling CONFIG_SERIAL_PMACZILOG is also for 3.12 only
(dunno about 3.13, but I think Geert has already? will? fix it for
the next one). There were several problems with debugging and multi‐
platform kernels.

<igli> yeah but it means if you really care about something, don't
    ritualise it, or you will lose it. don't fetishise it, don't
    obsess. or you'll forget why you love it in the first place.
