Actually I was going to do that and Daniel suggested otherwise :)

I think we should move this to MIPS start.S to support this for all MIPS
boards in a generic way. Puttings following code between
'setup_stack_gd' and the jump to 'board_init_f' should work:

#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_UART
        PTR_LA  t9, debug_uart_init
        jalr    t9
         nop
#endif
---
BTW, like Daniel I also think this is the proper way to go.
