I worked on the Giant Board some more today. Its lack of JTAG debugging is
maddening. I can't get the console UART1 to work, so I'm not sure how to
proceed. I'm just guessing, and swapping SD cards a lot. Urgh.

I think it has something to do with the device tree that the Giant Board
uses with U-Boot. I can compile, debug, and run just fine on the
SAMA5D2-XULT board. But the SD Card that boots that board into NuttX just
gives me garbage on the serial line, maybe because of the clock divider
being different. The SAMA5D2-XULT boot.bin and u-boot.bin don't use a
device tree. If you have any ideas I'd like to know them. I'm stuck.
