  1. mxgrub: Default to ttyS0 for serial console instead of ttyS1 

    We started to use the serial console for debugging for the Dell
PowerEdge R910 and R930, which assign `ttyS1` to the serial console on
the back, as they also have, I think, a serial port on the front.

Unfortunately, Linux does not allow to change the serial console port at
run-time, so the set value on the Linux kernel command line matters.

Most systems, including desktops, often only have one port, or the port,
we are interested in, so it’s `ttyS0` in Linux.

Therefore, change the default to `ttyS0` to cover more systems.
