I think all zeroes is preferable. The comment is definitely worthwhile.

I guess it doesn't fill in the rate, which is somewhat unfortunate.

Does it override an existing linux,stdout-path? If not, we could add the
rate.

I think we should have a comment about the bootlaoder filling in
linux,stdout-path, but other than that I'm not really sure what the best
option is.
