Both should work, you need to check your .config options.
If you have CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_OMAP set, then that takes over
and omap-serial is never probed. The ttyO2 kernel cmdline gets
translated to ttyS2, you still need to update the userspace to
use the right console though.

So we still don't have a solution fro dropping omap-serial.

I don't think I ever used nohlt with the am3517-evm. Or if I did
it was saved in the u-boot environment. But yeah, 3517 we should
be able to support as well as other omap3 as they are very similar.
