I finally was able to complete this series and test it satisfactorily.  
This required some hacking to the OMAP UART debugging code so it would 
stop fighting against me and forcefully collaborate.

It should at least build with 6651/1 in place.

Not if you do try to load the kernel somewhere else in memory to 
exercize its ability to live with a different phys offset.

The only fight
remaining is against the (imho misguided) attempt to select the debug
port based on the machine ID.  I normally end up hard-coding the
addresses.

That's what I ended up doing too, but something better and IMHO simpler 
could be done, which would also be fully position independent.
