With DEBUG_LL, you dont get any prints "automatically". You need add 
printascii() calls where you need. I use the attached patch which 
patches printk() calls with printascii()[1]

Adam, if you still cannot get it to work, one problem could be that the 
DT size has increased and its being overwritten. You could look at where 
you are loading various binaries. Or append the .dtb to zImage and 
switch on APPENDED_DTB config in kernel.
