The null TTY driver provides a proper (dummy) TTY interface when console=null is set on the kernel cmdline. This fixes certain applications which don't correctly handle read() immediately returning with 0 bytes (e.g. busybox syslogd). Most normal EFI devices don't boot with console=null and as such there are various foot-guns littered all over Linux userspace and even in our own initramfs. However some android devices even enforce console=null, so it's something we have to deal with. NULL_TTY should reduce the chance of folks running into strange problems because of this.
