I think that's because the clock driver doesn't have the uart clocks
in it.  I was investigating the hanging in SPL with DM_SERIAL and
noticed from the clk dump that the uart clocks were not present, so I
added them to the clock driver, but I didn't have success.  I also
tried moving the preloader_console_init and switching to early spl
init instead of a regular one.  Because I wasn't successful, I didn't
do anything with those patches, but I can post them to the mailing
list if there is interest.
