Hi,
since next-20160421, I get the following error and hang when trying to boot
an omap2plus_defconfig image with qemu, machine 'beagle' and omap3-beagle.dtb.
multi_v7_defconfig still works, as does machine 'beaglexm' with
omap3-beagle-xm.dtb
and omap2plus_defconfig. This is with Linaro's versio

Okay, I found PATCH 3/9 do it for be64, but what's about u64?

Dropped BALLOON entries as suggested by Borislav Petkov. Tested.
This was tested only on Hetzner CX10 VPS. I don't know how recent KVM
server stuff they use.
Tests & reports from anybody else are appreciated.
I guess some of added options may be not strictly necessary or make not
that lot of sense

Failure to enable DMA by the msm_serial driver is silent.
Add a message to report the failure.

Have tested this patch on Hikey, it works wel
From: Frank Rowand
Commit 3a878c430fd6 ("tty: serial: msm: Add TX DMA support") regression.
The calculation of tx_count was moved from the old msm_handle_tx(),
now renamed msm_handle_tx_pio(), to the new msm_handle_tx(). The
move left out one size test.
The regression seen on the qcom-apq8074-d
Commit 3a878c430fd6 ("tty: serial: msm: Add TX DMA support") resulted
in dropped characters and invalid characters in pio mode. Fix the
problem and add an additional information message that was important
in diagnosing the problem (reporting that DMA mode was not enabled).

Stops dead? What does that mean exactly? Box is
This was tested only on Hetzner CX10 VPS.
I don't know how recent KVM server stuff they use.
Tests & reports from anybody else are appreciated.
I guess some of added options may be not strictly necessary or make not
that lot of sense as enabled by default, feel free to ask me to drop some
and test
