That was exynos_defconfig with disabled DRM and enabled some debug,
next-20141128.

When I tried only exynos_defconfig (with disabled DRM) it worked fine...
So the imprecise aborts were caused by one of following debug options:

DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH
DYNAMIC_DEBUG
DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP
DEBUG_PREEMPT
PROVE_LOCKING
LOCKUP_DETECTOR
DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
PROVE_RCU
DEBUG_RT_MUTEXES
DEBUG_MUTEXES
DEBUG_SPINLOCK
DEBUG_LIST
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
SPARSE_RCU_POINTER
DEBUG_FS
PM_DEBUG
PM_ADVANCED_DEBUG
GPIO_SYSFS

I tried this already and imprecise aborts shown, however with my
debugging options above.

Overall the patches seems to work properly (although the debugging issue
needs to be resolved still), so:

On Arndale Octa (Exynos 5420):
