The USB to UART connection gets corrupted.
If this patch is applied to the kernel, the i.MX6 Q (quad), and only this board as far as
we know, starts to fail. This does *not* change the i.MX6DL and other sabre boards
have been tested on kernelci.org and do not see a problem.
An NXP/Freescale SABRESD i.MX6 Q board is requred.
My system for testing is to TFTP the Linux kernel over an ethernet connection. The
U-boot executes okay and the UART is working at that point. When the kernel loads
the console trace becomes garbled, in the sense that I get the some characters being
output to the console, in the style of the kernel starting up, but they are not correct.
I expect the kernel has started ok, but I am unable to read/write through the UART
console because of corruptions.
Console log with the output I am seeing with linux-next/v4.12-rc2

Is this enough information for you?
It would be difficult to reproduce without the i.MX6Q (quad) board from Freescale/NXP
I think.
