AppliedMicro X-Gene based boards don't use the "standard" 16550 clock rate so supplying a baud rate makes it change to a random baud rate. I suggest to introduce a new value '0' for the "Baud Rate" field of SPCR (now this value is reserved). This patch introduces a check for this value. In this case the code does not emit baud rate specification for initialization of the console.
