Hi Christophe,

This branch is certainly the right one to test, thanks for the report!
>From looking at the output above, it seems that the kernel no longer
boots at all, and fails to even print any messages. Between the
two runs, I see the following commits:

I've added the involved parties to Cc. We also see the same thing on
kernelci, where many OMAP based systems now fail to boot, with the
problem starting at the same commit:

https://kernelci.org/boot/all/job/mainline/branch/master/kernel/v4.16-rc6-431-gbcfc1f455466/

It's possible that this has already been debugged and a fix is being worked on,
but I'm not aware of anything, since I have not followed my email
while travelling.
