But 3.18-rc2 and the latest mainline (f7e87a44ef60ad379e39b45437604141453bf0ec) still have the same problem btw i did more tests and this is not EVA specific. A maltaup_defconfig fails in the same way. I suspect all malta*_defconfigs will fail in a similar way which makes it probably easier for you to reproduce it on a QEMU. -- markos
