Any suggestions?
AFAICS, the UART1 scratchpad is being used as a temporary storage for communication between the decompressor and the debug-macros. If so, the only requirement on this should be that this "register" have the same address across all davinci derivatives. EDMA is the only module that meets this criterion, since it is consistently present @ 0x01c00000 across all socs (so far).
