Booting today's next with multi_v7_defconfig (so cpuidle enabled) on omap4 sdp seems to boot reliably. And it's not producing these: gic_timer_retrigger: lost localtimer interrupt while panda is producing those errors like Roger mentioned. It seems that the USB networking is the main difference between omap4 sdp and panda?
