I have not experienced a single lock-up when booting with this patch, but I 
also didn't
stress-test the machine or even used the switch part. Do you guys have more 
details on why
it locks up, or how exactly these lock-ups can be resolved?

Wrong or suboptimal? I don't currently experience any obvious issues, using the 
same
toolchain for 8380, 8390 and 9300.
