Hi Elvis,

For my Freescale QorIQ e500v2 target, the use of getty inside init / 
inittab has been broken for awhile.  I used to get the hangs you're 
reporting, but now I also see the following at the conclusion of init:

serial8250: too much work for irq42


I'm glad you're working this issue, and I'll try to jump in this week.


My workaround has been a hack to inittab to replace getty with /bin/sh - 
most of my work is done across the network via ssh to the target, so I 
didn't mind ignoring the problem.


Bob
