I managed to get serial console and netconsole muxing to work, so I can
see all the debug messages:

        Hit any key to stop autoboot:  5 using ci_udc, OUT ep- IN ep-
        STATUS ep-
        MAC 00:19:b8:00:00:02
        HOST MAC 00:19:b8:00:00:01
        high speed config #1: 2 mA, Ethernet Gadget, using CDC Ethernet
        USB network up!
         0 
        => tftp u-boot.sb
        using ci_udc, OUT ep- IN ep- STATUS ep-
        timeout sending packets to usb ethernet

This reminded me about an issue I had some months ago:
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2014-July/182885.html

I enabled debug output in arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/cache.c and I get
error:
=> tftp u-boot.sb
using ci_udc, OUT ep- IN ep- STATUS ep-
CACHE: Misaligned operation at range [43f7b010, 43f7b070]

I removed the flush_cache() call in cmd_net.c:netboot_common() as
suggested by Marek in the thread. But the error message is still there.

Any idea?
