The pins you said are the right ones. However, if anything fails before the 
kernel is booted you won't get any output. You could try booting a 3.14 image 
and check if you are properly connected to the uart.

It may be some wrong configuration related to the recently added DT support, 
which expects a DTB and since no DTB is passed from the bootloader, the kernel 
crashes before any output.
