I have been in trouble for a while to debug some nasty problem where neighter a debugger nor printf() function is available.
I found the lowlevel debug feature in ARM Linux can be used as is in U-Boot too. I tested this series on our SoCs (32bit ARM, specificly Coretex-A9). Because I was not sure about aarch64, I have this feature depend on "! ARM64". 1/6 and 2/6 refactor a bit and move CONFIG_ARM64 to Kconfig. 3/6 imports some source files from Linux 3.16 and 5/6 adds the Kconfig menu.
