You are perfectly right and totally wrong.
Yes, you are right: when reaching this point there is not much left
that can go wrong - in U-Boot, that is.
But of course there is a million things that can go wrong in Linux,
and it appears you are running onto one of these.

May I suggest to run a standard U-Boot version instead, which includes
all the necessary initialization?
You don't mention a board name, so I guess all your code is not
available in mainline?
Best regards,

The most difficult thing in the world is to know how to do a thing
and to watch someone else doing it wrong, without commenting.
