Hi,

I bisected from v3.17 until 3.18-rc1. But 3.18-rc2 and the latest
mainline (f7e87a44ef60ad379e39b45437604141453bf0ec) still have the same
problem

btw i did more tests and this is not EVA specific. A maltaup_defconfig
fails in the same way. I suspect all malta*_defconfigs will fail in a
similar way which makes it probably easier for you to reproduce it on a
QEMU.
