Done. And success. Thanks. I am running your 3.0.43 kernel with my BSP.
no more network or reboot slowness issues.

However, htop it saying that CPU0 is at 20% and CPU3 at 12%,
no application is running. The only thing that I see running is the
timer interrupt.

Also, I still have
87:         13          0          0          0       GIC  i.MX Timer Tick

.. the counter increases very slowly, about 1 every 10 minutes maybe.

That does not happen with CONFIG_IPIPE=no
