Haven't tried yet, but I took a look at the dump:

Ok, that is clearly the "busyloop" macro in
arch/arm/include/debug/8250.S, checking if the data got sent.
The 'r2' register contains zero, so UART_LSR_TEMT and
UART_LSR_THRE are not set, but presumably the mapping
was installed right since you did not get a page fault.
I assume you checked that the uart output wasn't already broken
by one of the earlier patches, right?
Also, looking at arch/arm/mach-omap1/include/mach/uncompress.h
it seems that SX1 normally uses UART3, not UART1.
Is that different in qemu?
