Hi,

Has anyone else seen the following problem (or better solved it).

I am testing with a multi-platform kernel binary on both a Broadcom
board and ARM TC2 - as such I have:
CONFIG_ARCH_BCM=y
CONFIG_ARCH_VEXPRESS=y

I am using some debug features and earlyprintk on the BCM board so have:
CONFIG_DEBUG_LL=y
CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK=y
and a arch/arm/include/debug/bcm_kona.S which is included by Kconfig.debug.

If I put earlyprintk on the cmdline for the Broadcom board it all works fine.

If I don't on the Vexpress it hangs at kernel start-up. That should
have worked ok, but to make it do so I have to comment out the two
putstr lines in decompress_kernel in arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.c
(then everything is fine).

Apart from just removing those lines so I no longer get the printout of:
"Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel."
I can't see an obvious way of fixing this.

Has anyone else come across this issue with multi-platform kernels and
come up with a solution which keeps the Uncompressing printout - I
can't find anything about this on the usual mailing lists.

Thanks,
James
