What is the "earlycon=exynos4210,0x14C20000" doing here? Should that not just be
"earlycon=exynos" or something like that when you set the correct stdout-path?

If you need the numbers to match, maybe there is still a bug in the serial port
driver and it uses some arbitrary number (e.g. probe order, or ascending
MMIO address) for the console instead of the alias?
