i.MX6 kernel uncompress: how to output uncompress messages?

Hi,
using an older, non-multiplatform kernel which still uses
arch/arm/mach-imx/include/mach/uncompress.h
I wonder how the uncompress is supposed to set the 'uart_base' for i.MX6?
Looking in
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=blob;f=arch/arm/mach-imx/include/mach/uncompress.h;h=477971b009308a929c53c19ce40c4b35c425d623;hb=69ac71d370b21cc52a2afd06f3a6d6d1da5edc75#l70
there doesn't seem to be any i.MX6 related case part?
This results in no
Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernle.
messages output on i.MX6. And with this the associated error messages in
case anything goes wrong with the uncompression aren't output, either.
Adding a hack like
uart_base = MX6Q_UART4_BASE_ADDR;
outputs these uncompression messages.
What's the supposed clean way to do this?
Many thanks
Dirk
