The GKI kernel is the same one, that does not have the revert and the fix applied. for the vendor tree(the ko files and dtb files are used) #1 built with this commit reverted. #2 built with the fix applied. #1 could boot with the GKI kernel, while #2 does not boot with the same error.

Thanks, I will wait for the fix to be merged into the android-mainline, before that I will use the revert workaround for the moment. -- Best Regards, Yongqin Liu --------------------------------------------------------------- #mailing list linaro-android@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-android
