OK now I now that PC5 switches the red LED on and there since is a
LED framework in u-boot I will use that in a later patch.

PC9 is somewhat strange. If I set it to 0 I don't have a console!

So I tried to put both

| at91_set_gpio_output(AT91_PIN_PC9, 1);
| at91_seriald_hw_init();

into board_early_init_f() to avoid the strange characters at boot time,
but again no console output ...

Further tests showed that It seems that I can't use at91_set_gpio_output()
inside board_early_init_f(). Switching on the red LED with PC5 also do not
work in board_early_init_f() ...

Any ideas?

Cheers, Markus
