Please note CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(LOG) is never enabled for TPL_BUILD.

Since commit f1c6e1922eb57f4a212c09709801a1cc7920ffa9,
CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(LOG) is expanded to CONFIG_TPL_LOG
when building for TPL.

Since that commit, if you add SPL_ prefixed option,
you need to add a TPL_ one as well.

I cannot believe why such a commit was accepted.

Please do not invent our own for U-Boot.
Just use Linux log level.

                        0 (KERN_EMERG)          system is unusable
                        1 (KERN_ALERT)          action must be taken immediately
                        2 (KERN_CRIT)           critical conditions
                        3 (KERN_ERR)            error conditions
                        4 (KERN_WARNING)        warning conditions
                        5 (KERN_NOTICE)         normal but significant condition
                        6 (KERN_INFO)           informational
                        7 (KERN_DEBUG)          debug-level messages

If you want to use CONFIG_VAL(LOG_MAX_LEVEL),
this must be SPL_LOG_MAX_LEVEL.
(this coding mistake is now hidden by another mistake)

Again, you will probably end up with TPL_LOG_MAX_LEVEL.

I am not sure if this luxury filter is needed.
After all, the purpose is debugging.
The printf() debugging is useful, but only during testing.
Once quality code is established, most of debug message should
generally be removed from upstream code.

This INIT_LIST_HEAD() is unneeded.

I know that this (struct list_head *) cast is needed,
but it is very unfortunate.
I believe gd_t is design mistake in the first place,
but U-Boot has gone to unfixable already...

I cannot understand your intention of #if CONFIG_VAL(LOG_MAX_LEVEL).
>From your Kconfig entry,

   0 - panic
   1 - critical
   2 - error
   3 - warning
   4 - note
   5 - info
   6 - detail
   7 - debug

I expect CONFIG_VAL(LOG_MAX_LEVEL) is an integer value
range 0 to 7.

If the log level is 0 (= critial), the conditional is false, so
_LOG_MAX_LEVEL is set to "info" level.

Why is this #if necessary?

This is neither while() nor for().
The bare use of "continue" made me really surprised.
