Based on the steps provided, we are still not able to get some output on UART3 simultaneously with UART2.
Can you please help us find out what we are missing.

On the current u-boot, Following was the observation and steps to enable UART3 on arndale

Observations / Questions
——————————————
a) The board has the default UART set to UART2 which is at 0x12c20000, while the include/configs/arndale.h has the UART_OFFSET set to 0x010000.
Shouldn’t it be set to 0x20000 ?

b) board_uart_init in board/samsung/arndale/arndale.c is configuring all the uarts, 
Clocks would be set properly for all 4 uarts ?

Steps / Code Modified
——————————————
a) GPAICON[4] and [5] set to 0x2 in board/samsung/arndale/arndale.c
b) GPA1PUD [4] and [5] set to 0.
