yes, same issues as with most of DEBUG_LL related configurations in
common/Kconfig. It is possible to misconfigure the DEBUG_LL for board or
SoC. Currently I don't have a solution except of remove DEBUG_LL support
completely from Kconfig for MIPS, or introduce some dynamic
configuration, which is not related to this patch set.

It is not a regression introduced by this patch, so it should be fixed
separately.

Did you tested this patches?
