Broadcom Iproc SoCs typically use the UART3 for
debug/console, provide a known good location for that.

Hi Clément,

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the trend is to move to use 
earlycon that can be activated from kernel command line for early print 
before the serial driver is loaded.

Have you tried earlcon?

Thanks,

Ray

No, only tested this method.

If I remember it correctly, I think the trend is to use earlycon. There 
are obvious shortcomings by making this configuration compile time based.

This is true, though on ARM 32-bit kernels DEBUG_LL gets used by the
kernel self-decompressor and also before earlycon has a chance to run,
this is useful to debugging memory issues where your memory
configuration is incorrect typically.

Either way is fine with me (accepting or dropping) the patch, though
there is probably minimal impact in just accepting such a change.

Sorry Florian, I had a couple issues with my email client yesterday and 
I'm not sure if you have received my reply.

Please see my reply inline.

Will leave the decision to you then.
