Agreed!

I haven't replicated your results here so I'm not 100% sure what's
happening, but from my experience the FPGA is programmed and running
by the time the UIO devices show up.  One thing that could be causing
problems is if the FPGA is programmed by U-Boot and then reprogrammed
by the Linux kernel.  If anything was talking to the FPGA fabric (like
the HDMI interface or any of the other "extra" logic in the example
designs and not just the HM2 logic) that could trigger BadThings up to
and including a kernel panic or system halt.

It's also possible there's a startup delay in the FPGA reset logic
that's causing the problem.  The FPGA may be "running", but still
being held in an internal reset condition.
