So it means that commit 1a8e1ce causes the break for you. I haven't seen
this problem on any other platform yet. A wrong DT could as well cause
problems as this commit would change where some memory allocations come
from.

Can you run the kernel with memtest=1, just in case the DT is wrongly
pointing to some non-RAM areas.
