Thanks for the update.

TPL/SPL are mostly silent on the downstream build:

Not sure if it helps at all, but ArmBian is pretty noisy:
Weird that downstream and mainline are being built with none of the debug stuff enabled. Armbian clearly shows the initial setup occuring correctly, and that it's a 4GB board. It's using both the Rockchip miniloader with a Rockchip TF-A blob as well.

Right. Played a lot with this today.
Our build was using TF-A which was built-in to the primary loader.
I had 2 interesting results today. No idea how to explain them.
First one was with Mainline u-boot and Mainline TF-A, which found, but was seemingly unable to boot the kernel:
https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/9HRhPyfjYK/
The second interesting result I had was using our downstream u-boot with Mainline TF-A. It booted perfectly from cold, but managed to get stuck in the TPL on soft reboot in a very similar way to the one I reported earlier when not booting with TF-A ("Channel 1: col error"):
Mainline TF-A defaults to 115200 for its uart messages, so you need to either A. pass the uart config from U-Boot to TF-A with a platform config option (unreliable in my experience), B. change U-Boot to 115200, or C. change TF-A to 1.5M (the path I take). Your mainline
Hopefully this is enough:

Yes, that is sufficient.
That's interesting. Would this change result in me now being able to see the console output from this (apparently) failed attempt:
https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/9HRhPyfjYK/
However the result is the same as the downstream kernel where it fails in the TPL on soft reboot:
https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/TZBYqTMCnN/
No TF-A messages seen though still.
Is it possible that u-boot only runs TF-A on cold boot? Seems odd.
What was the extra logging you mentioned before?
