1) Where in meta-systemd is SERIAL_CONSOLE being set? I can't find it anywhere 
in there.

2) Should you even be using meta-systemd? systemd support in OE-Core is 99% 
complete; meta-systemd is mostly only needed for legacy usages.

3) When the machine configuration sets the value, that happens pretty early on 
in the parsing process so there's no way that this value is going to take 
precedence over the machine value. Have you looked at the output of 
bitbake -e systemd-serialgetty | less to see how the value of this variable is 
being set?

Cheers,
Paul
