I tried booting today's -next on db820c, using arm64 defconfig,
and it booted correctly:

I also tried removing the ath10k firmware from my initrd, but it still booted
correctly.

# cat /proc/version
Linux version 4.18.0-rc7-next-20180731-00001-g47055e3ba913 (nks at centauri) (gcc version 7.2.1 20171011 (Linaro GCC 7.2-2017.11)) #9 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jul 31 21:34:43 CEST 2018

I guess it could be a bug that does not trigger on every boot,
or it could be a problem in the kernelci infrastructure.


Kind regards,
