FYI, I was able to boot using the branch posted by Santosh just fine. I
used v2013.07 u-boot. The boot traces show up about 30~45 seconds after
you see the trace "Starting kernel...".

For using a rootfs from MMC, enable the following in menuconfig:
  Device Drivers -> Multifunction device drivers -> TI Palmas series chips
  Device Drivers -> Voltage and Current Regulator Support -> TI Palmas
PMIC regulators.

Depending on your u-boot settings, make sure the mmcroot is also set to
/dev/mmcblk1p2.
