What I personally use, and this is not for a production system per se is Wheezy 7.8. Once that image is installed, I then upgrade to a newer 4.1.x kernel, and that's where I've been happy lately. I do a lot of personal testing of various hardware modules, etc, and have found this setup mostly solid.
Do you know if you're going to use uio_pruss, or remoteproc + rpmsg for the PRU ? The SPI stuff, I'd have to let someone else comment on. No personal hands on yet.
