I think when init_sequence_f[] is running, there may be no serial console to report errors. If so, moving the I2C initialization to
that
early point sounds like a really bad idea.
Not really - when you see the U-Boot banner the console is working, and we clearly see the U-Boot banner before i2c init happens.
I thought it got buffered up and only actually sent to the UART much later, and not in the case when something failed since U-Boot wouldn't get that far? Or, did that proposal get shot down?
There is an option to buffer output until console_init_f() is called, but that is called very early...
