Thanks to

and helpful people on the list I managed to get the pi to boot by
silencing the console messages in u-boot.

I skipped the switch and patched rpi.h:

@@ -85,10 +87,13 @@
 #define CONFIG_INITRD_TAG

 /* Environment */
+#define CONFIG_SYS_DEVICE_NULLDEV
+#define CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE_UPDATE_ON_RELOC
+#define CONFIG_SILENT_CONSOLE_UPDATE_ON_SET
 #define ENV_DEVICE_SETTINGS \
-       "stdin=serial,usbkbd\0" \
-       "stdout=serial,vidconsole\0" \
-       "stderr=serial,vidconsole\0"
+       "stdin=usbkbd\0" \
+       "stdout=vidconsole\0" \
+       "stderr=vidconsole\0"

and now the pi is booting.

Now to the next problem, I need to rewire TXD and RXD and add reception
of the PPS signal on pin 4. The advice in the link above is not
appclicable to current and rpi3.

Right now uart1 is wired to the RXD and TXD pins, I want uart0. Is it
recompile a dts or use gpioctl?

uart0: <PrimeCell UART (PL011)> mem 0x7e201000-0x7e201fff irq 24 on
simplebus0
uart1: <BCM2835 Mini-UART> mem 0x7e215040-0x7e21507f irq 32 on simplebus0
uart1: console (115200,n,8,1)

Thank you for your patience,
