[U-Boot-Users] cpu_init.c: qe_config_ioports not being called?

That's because cpu_init_f() is called before the serial port is enabled.

Just FYI, here's a trick to make sure the compiler is thinking the same thing 
you are:

Modify cpu_init_f() like this:

#ifdef CONFIG_QE
asdlfhasdfkjlhgasdfiuge
	/* Config QE ioports */
	config_qe_ioports();
#endif

The compiler will generate a syntax error on the garbage characters you insert, 
if it compiles that code.  If U-Boot builds fine, then you know that CONFIG_QE 
is not defined at that point in the code, or cpu_init.c is not being compiled at 
all.

cpu_init_r() has further QE initialization, and printfs work in that function. 
Check to see if it is being called.
