I usually bisect like this:

1.  Get hold of the patch fixing the boot regression:
    git format-patch
f5565295892eb93c3191aa241405fe8b685542d6^..f5565295892eb93c3191aa241405fe8b685542d6

2. At each iterative step using git bisect:
   patch -p1 < 0001-ARM-7610-1-versatile-bump-IRQ-numbers.patch

3. Boot/trial-and-horror

4. git reset --hard HEAD
   To nullify the effects of the patch.

5. git bisect [good|bad]

6. Iterate from (2) until you find the bug.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
