Title:
  HP moonshot platforms should use a 9600/hw flow control console

Status in “flash-kernel” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “flash-kernel” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  HP recommends defaulting to a 9600 baud/hardware flow control console on moonshot cartridges to avoid overwhelming the management processors in fully populated systems.
  [Test Case]
  Make sure you can boot w/ a 9600 baud system
  [Regression Potential]
  If someone had such hardware already in production and upgraded flash-kernel after install, they'd see a mismatch between kernel console speed and the getty. Luckily these platforms are not yet generally available so we don't need to worry about that :)
