I reset all the configuration and compiled 5.13 and it works. Also, I compiled with same configuration linux-next and It was OK. Thanks for tip!

Problem for testing linux-next
Hi, all. I'm trying to test linux-next. I'm using QEMU for testing. I cloned linux-next repository and checkout to last tag next-20210812. I compiled with simple command below. make menuconfig make & make modules_install & make install and rebooted system. and it failed. It hangs after the message "freeing unused kernel image (init mem) memory" after about 500 seconds, it prints call trace including "x2apic_send_IPI" and it blocked. I want to copy and past it to here. but I don't know how to see the dmesg in last failed session. Is there any wrong configuration for compiling? I would paste it if I could copy the error message.

And He replied positive. I would get the pi433 device soon. It would be nice that It can be tested in practice.

A question about staging driver like pi433
Hi all, I have a question about staging driver. I'm a newbie kernel developer and I tried contributed some patches for staging drivers. In those staging drivers, I'm interested in pi433 and wrote some patches for it about 2 years ago. and then I tried to go deeper for that. I tried to buy pi433 device but I can't. It seems that no longer available. In this case, pi433 should be removed from source tree? If not, It's okay to send patches for it?
