Commit 304acb717e5b67cf56f05bc5b21123758e1f7ea0 AKA https://patchwork.linux-mips.org/patch/9705/ was backported to 3.16.55 stable as 8605aa2fea28c0485aeb60c114a9d52df1455915 and I'm afraid it causes yeeloongs to fail to boot up. 3.16.54 was fine; bisection took me to this patch. The symptom is a kernel panic -- attempt to kill init. No further info is provided. Is this problem already known? Is there by any chance a known fix for me to try, or should I investigate further?
