Say Y here if you want kernel low-level debugging support
on MVEBU based platforms.
+ This option should be used with the old bootloaders

+ platforms such as the Globalscale Mirabox or the
+ Plathome OpenBlocks AX3, when using the original
+ bootloader.

+ silently crashes, with no serial output at all.
