OK, then that means the debug-macro.S changes for busyuart macro
are OK.

Well the next patch gets rid of the hardcoded port addresses.
The debug port number is stored in uncompress.h based on the
machine ID.

Maybe try this next: Reset your test branch to commit
0c8219f0302d0d27fda52c790d38406801e547ec, then take a look at
arch/arm/plat-omap/include/plat/uncompress.h in a text editor.
Then see if there's an entry for your board in __arch_decomp_setup.

Is the DEBUG_LL_OMAP7XX(1, herald) correct? Is port 1 the right
UART to use?

If there's no entry, then you need to add a DEBUG_LL_OMAP7XX line
suitable for your board.

If you see something like "Uncompressing Linux..." then your know
the uncompress.h part is working. Once you get that working, then
it's time to look at the debug-macro.S again, see the addruart
macro that reads the debug port number from UART1 scratchpad
register.

Tony
