Did you rebase them on top the current linux-mips tree, or something ?

Do you mean: a) My kernel crashed, so I gave your patchset a try but it's still crahshing b) My kernel crashed, so I gave your patchset a try and it makes my kernel running fine. I assume you're saying a). Can you give a try to 2.6.23-rc2 because it includes commit b1c65b3988c6e29ac371ab1cbbf6c4f8fb7092f8 which might fix your issue. That would be a side effect but it gives us a hint on your problem. Also your .config, dmesg files are welcome. Franck
