Subject: [linuxppc-release] [PATCH 1/2] powerpc, e5500: add networking to
defconfig
Even though support for the p5020's on-chip ethernet is not yet upstream,
it is not appropriate to disable all networking support (including
loopback, unix domain sockets, external ethernet devices, etc) in the

Ok, i like the direction here, but i think the ABI should be done differently.
In this patch the ftrace event filter mechanism is used:

Good, we lose our sensitivity to device node ordering.

Hi Mattheew,
such oops you can get also with spi.
For such problem helps to compile your kernel with other preemption
model:
- preempt
- standard
- !!! but not voluntary preemption !!!
The other possibility: check your board, may be it has some memory
problems.
