Eh, it's probably not hanging at all - you're just not seeing anything because
the device naming scheme changed and the serial console not getting
initialized correctly. Be sure that in your platform_notify function has
a '.' in the platform device name - this was added around 2.6.11 or so.
An example from another board I have:
static int xes_mv64x60_platform_notify(struct device *dev)
{
static struct {
char *bus_id;
void ((*rtn) (struct platform_device * pdev));
} dev_map[] = {
#ifdef CONFIG_SERIAL_MPSC
{
MPSC_CTLR_NAME ".0", xes_mv64x60_fixup_mpsc_pdata}, {
MPSC_CTLR_NAME ".1", xes_mv64x60_fixup_mpsc_pdata},
#endif
}
Also, be sure to enable early boot messages - they help a lot. Also, don't
overlook setting console=ttyMM0,9600 in the kernel args.
