"Which of the two keyboards to read, which of the three screens to use

The console is normally one particular keyboard (or possibly all of
them),
and /dev/fb0 in case of graphical console. Other framebuffers are
not the primary console.
I am not sure how this can be achievable, assuming that udev is
responsible for loading framebuffer modules. Since it loads them in
parallel, the registration order is essentially random. See the
following Debian bugs about other subsystems:
So what? In that case, it is essentially random _which_ display you
get your PANIC on, but you will get it on one of them.
Of course this case is easily fixed by loading the preferred
framebuffer driver before running udev. That way, it grabs
/dev/fb0 before anything else.
