I'm trying to enable spidev on mcspi1, but when I do, the kernel while booting
after the kernel is uncompressed. No useful messages are displayed. This is
with a current git.

I've attached the diff I use to add the spi driver to the board file. (OVero +
Summit).

Maybe try enabling early printk support if you haven't already?

I think the early printk stuff was stopping me seeing the message ....

Unfortunately, I found the conflicting driver, the 7846 touchscreen driver, and disabled it, so the kernel boots again. (Before I could boot with debugging messages enabled)

I suspect the kernel should not crash if two drivers try to claim the spi device. If someone is interested, I can reanable the bad configuration and try to collect better data.
