evolution! kernel 2.6.11 has run on the board with u-boot 1.1.4, also, at
early booting time LEDs are disabled due to MMU on and off. so i tried to
turn LEDs on after start_kernel function, wow, blinking! that is before
start_kernel will be done successfully. then i modified registers mapping in
immap_cpm2.h and configure smc1 as serial. console worked normally.
booting info as following

halt here~
i have tried to build newer kernel and bootloader. but LEDs were not
blinking at start_kernel, i guessed something wrong with dts, i should check
OF doc and dts.
