I am using an ADI Pronghorn Metro board and noticed an issue with any
kernel >= 3.5-rc1 where the board would not boot (or at least no
console messages appear over the serial port), just giving
"Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel." and stopping there.
I ran a git bisect between v3.4 and v3.5 and narrowed the problem down
to this commit:
---
c23bfc3835173f5229b2503e3b616001a28affad is the first bad commit
commit c23bfc3835173f5229b2503e3b616001a28affad
Author: Russell King <rmk+ker...@arm.linux.org.uk>
Date: Sat Mar 10 12:49:16 2012 +0000
ARM: PCI: provide a default bus scan implementation
---
I then reversed this commit on 3.7.9 and the board booted
successfully. I'm not sure if this affects other boards of the same
arch or not, I only have access to a Pronghorn which also requires a
patch for the board files as they are not part of mainline.
