They have all made the LM842 a lot more stabile, but the issue I see with "tx report failed" is currently blocking me from using the LM842, since the mender upgrade is a crucial part for my use-case.

I am still not sure what to do about this. It happens with high RX load.
One way would be to just drop the log level of this message.

shouldn't be too hard to bring up a i.MX6 board with a vanilla kernel.
