Are you sure this did not just happen when you booted the new kernel
for the first time ? I have seen similar behavior with some distributions.

I did some more tries and found out that I had disabled some of my patches until I reached 3.15.4 (latest version) where I decided to do needed modifications to get my patches back in.

I tracked the problem down to the following patch:


diff --git a/arch/arm/boot/dts/imx23-olinuxino.dts b/arch/arm/boot/dts/imx23-olinuxino.dts

                        };
                };


I need this to add spidev support. But I don't understand why this change kills performance? Maybe the "high" value in "clock-frequency"? Can someone give me some information on how to fix this?

Thank you very much in advance.

Greetings,

Manuel
