Jorrit Herder fe0dcb5c00 AT driver is not modified (debugging only);
TTY: select and revive with new notify and FS call back;
kernel: removed old notify code; removed ugly prepare_shutdown timer

/* A server must occasionally print some message. It uses a simple version of
* printf() found in the system lib that calls kputc() to output characters.
* Printing is done with a call to the kernel, and not by going through FS.
*
* This routine can only be used by servers and device drivers. The kernel
* must define its own kputc(). Note that the log driver also defines its own
* kputc() to directly call the TTY instead of going through this library.
