I haven't tested, since I don't have a working setup for that to hand.
(Do you have instructions somewhere for getting it working?)

The behaviour we would want would be for the firmware to keep using
the PL011 at 0x09000000. (In an ideal world the firmware would
prefer the UART marked in the 'stdout-path' in the DTB /chosen node,
as the kernel does, I guess.)
