i can see why the kernel is stuck -- its because ticks=jiffies is the command just before infinitely looping based on the condition that ticks==jiffies!
Am I not looking in the right place?

The delay loop calibration relies on a working system timer, if you
haven't setup and started a timer for your board, the jiffies will
never be incremented ergo indefinitely looping in this place.

This information can probably be found under Porting, on the l-m.o
wiki. Check there if you have any other problems in the process of
writing your board specific code.
