I used kernel 4.17-rc6
at91_dt_defconfig
at91sam9g35ek.dtb

Kernel command line: root=/dev/mtdblock1 rw rootfstype=ubifs ubi.mtd=1 root=ubi0:rootfs
( the one from the DTS )

Detailed instructions:

git checkout v4.17-rc6 
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=path_to_my_Xchain/arm-linux- LOADADDR=0x20008000 make -j 12 at91_dt_defconfig
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=path_to_my_Xchain/arm-linux- LOADADDR=0x20008000 make -j 12 uImage at91sam9g35ek.dtb
cp arch/arm/boot/uImage arch/arm/boot/dts/at91sam9g35ek.dtb /tftpboot/

>From uboot:
tftpboot 0x20007FC0 uImage
tftpboot 0x26400000 at91sam9g35ek.dtb
bootm 0x20007FC0 - 0x26400000

[ I see the logs on the serial debug ]

git am \[PATCH\ v3\ [1-6]*

ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=path_to_my_Xchain/arm-linux- LOADADDR=0x20008000 make -j 12 uImage at91sam9g35ek.dtb
cp arch/arm/boot/uImage arch/arm/boot/dts/at91sam9g35ek.dtb /tftpboot/
