At the moment, I'm building a kernel that is only going to run on this particular board, so the kconfig solution works *for me*. Unfortunately, I'm not sure I can help develop a more generic solution. I can't reliably reproduce the problem, so I can't even offer to help test for it. Even more unfortunately, I don't currently have the bandwidth to do any more investigation or experimenting with the devtree option (as much as I would like to!). At this point in my project, I probably can't even justify trying to switch to a more current kernel, so I couldn't try out a new release regardless. Sorry I can't be more help. Thanks again, Tony
