Ah, that's true, in ft_setup(), I didn't see that. Thanks! (I'd been
thinking about how the command line should be passed from U-Boot, but
decided to postpone that investigation until I solved the serial console
problem.)

However, the code in ft_setup() doesn't assign "linux,stdout-path", so
if I remove the chosen node from my DTS, then I get no print-out on the
serial console at all. (But the rest of the system appears to run fine
and I can log in using SSH.) Can this be a clue to someone as to what
could be the problem with my serial console?
