sadly that does not reproduce on imx8mm ... a long print works fine
with or without the patch :-S

Yes, it does happen on imx8mm.

You need to add the print() inside board_init().

Here is a reproducer on imx8mm evk:

diff --git a/board/freescale/imx8mm_evk/imx8mm_evk.c b/board/freescale/imx8mm_evk/imx8mm_evk.c

        if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_FEC_MXC))
                setup_fec();

        return 0;
 }


The result is:

As you can see the corruption is clearly seen.

The RTC line is displayed from drivers/misc/gsc.c and the Core: comes
from dm_announce. Somehow in between the FIFO does not get drained
before dm_announce gets called.

"flushing" shouldn't be an issue, since everything goes through the
same set of registers which the imx queues into its fifo...
i suspect the rootcause lies someplace else?


Reverting your change makes the issue disappear.
