​It looks like some compiler issue is causing the problem. I was using GCC
7.2.0. When I go back to GCC 6.4.0 the board boots with SERIAL_SEARCH_ALL=y.
I also verified this by enabling SPL_DM_SERIAL on 'omap3_beagle' and
booting with SERIAL_SEARCH_ALL=y. Both GCC versions compiled without error.
GCC 6.4.0 is the compiler version that is working for me now. The actual
offending generated code will take more time, for me, to sort through.
