Package: flash-kernel
Version: 3.12
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

Dear Maintainer,

Description and steps to reproduce:
- QNAP TS-212 (cpuinfo = 'QNAP TS-119/TS-219') with 3.11-2-kirkwood and 
flash-kernel 3.12;
- Installed 3.12-1-kirkwood (update-initramfs and flash-kernel executed 
automatically and normally);
- Rebooted;
- System not up;
- Connected serial console;
- Rebooted;
- System hangs just after kernel being (successfully) loaded by U-Boot, with no 
output whatsoever.

I was able to restore an old backup (flash and rootfs), repeat the whole 
process and get to the same exact result.

I suppose this has to do with DT - Device Tree and could be (loosely) related 
to bugs #731345 and #734769.

The solution appears to be the appendage of DTB to the kernel, but I have 
little to no knowledge in patching flash-kernel to get to a working solution.

Regards,
Ruben
