Hello Christophe, Bisecting isn’t necessary because the problem is in the following files.
drivers/of/base.c drivers/of/device.c drivers/of/of_mdio.c drivers/of/of_numa.c drivers/of/of_private.h drivers/of/overlay.c drivers/of/platform.c drivers/of/unittest-data/overlay_15.dts drivers/of/unittest-data/tests-overlay.dtsi drivers/of/unittest.c include/linux/of.h I removed the OF modifications from the merge commit 'devicetree-for-4.20' and SMP works again.
