It's very interesting to know that this is actually the second
decompression. The first stage (barebox-socfpga-sa2-xload.img) succeeded
up to 'starting bootloader...' and then the output you have after that
is the prebootloader of the second stage (barebox-socfpga-sa2.img).
The decompressed barebox proper of the first stage already ran from
within SDRAM, so your SDRAM setup might not be to blame.
For a more complete picture, could you enable CONFIG_DEBUG_PBL and
CONFIG_DEBUG_LL also for the first stage and include them in your next mail?

I expanded a bit on Sascha's suggestions in the troubleshooting guide
I just sent out. I hope this will be helpful to you in pinpointing your
issue. Looking at the branch you pushed to your repository, I notice
the following in no particular order:
- you are missing a /chosen/stdout-path. You probably want to set it
to silence the 'No consoles were activated' warning and get
early output, even without CONFIG_DEBUG_LL
- As Sascha mentioned, calling pr_debug before relocation can
introduce bugs of its own, so stick to putc_ll('@') if unsure
- It would be interesting to see if CONFIG_PBL_VERIFY_PIGGY succeeds
and if an early putc_ll() in start.c as suggested by Sascha
would give any output.
Cheers,
Ahmad
