Hello,

I've just bisected a problem with 3.6.4.

I had to revert commit 54ce8ce298f382a06186cb4672ad6aa090b050b6 
(1bbbbe779aabe1f0768c2bf8f8c0a5583679b54a in mainline), otherwise my box 
didn't boot.

I can't provide any output, because I don't see if that commit is 
applied. ;)

Here is the start of the dmesg with the memory map (with the above 
commit reverted):
