Thanks for your support (indeed I only received your mail a few minutes,
that is after I proposed another patch).

Your patch will not work, because initcalls are called too late. The 8xx
needs the SMCs from the CPM for console, that is long before initcalls
are called.

I sent a proposed patch approximatly 2 hours ago, it is called "[PATCH]
soc: fsl/qe: fix Oops on CPM1 (and likely CPM2)"
That one works. Could you have a look ?

Christophe
