It wasn't the mechanics of reverting that caused problems, it was the
fact that when I reverted things still didn't work. Actually, I've gone
back and retested with the for-next branch from today and it appears
that for some reason the issue has gone away there which is a bit
confusing though as I write this it occurs to me that I did turn device
tree back on (my board doesn't use it but I typically build it in) which
I had off when I tested yesterday and would explain the issue.
It looks like there's a second bug breaking the boot in there - testing
your commit the board boots but if I test the tip of Russell's for-next
then that breaks again. I'm just starting another bisect and
considering sending a patch to add a git finger-point alias.
