I set the bootargs to: bootargs=console=ttyS2,115200n8
clk_ignore_unused root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rw rootfstype=ext4 rootwait

I enabled DEBUG_LL and EARLY_PRINTK, yet when it loads, I only get:

## Flattened Device Tree blob at c0600000
   Booting using the fdt blob at 0xc0600000
   Loading Device Tree to c7e57000, end c7e5ef35 ... OK

Starting kernel ...

Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.


I am doing this at my home, so I don't have a debugger for the
DA850-EVM.  I am using a SOM that is an AM1808, but I vaguely remember
something about enabling a DSP clock somewhere, but I cannot seem to
find the e-mail.  I know its counter intuitive that we'd need to
enable a clock that runs the DSP since it doesn't exist on the AM1808,
but I would have thought the clk_ignore_unused would have worked
around that issue.

If someone else has a DA850-EVM or suggestions, I'm willing to try
them as I have time.
