Ok, I tested the v2 series on v4.4-rc3 on my
DNS-323: Identified HW revision B1
Orion ID: MV88F5182-A2. TCLK=166666667.

Only basic tests, serial port and network.

The good news:
orion5x_defconfig works and is even slightly smaller than the
original v4.4-rc3 kernel image.

The bad news:
My own config (which is massivly stripped down) produces a kernel
image that's more than 26K bigger than on v4.4-rc3 without any
added functionality.
The DNS-323 is extremly constrained in space (the whole system
including boot loader, kernel and filesystem has to fit into 8M flash).
Any ideas how I can get rid of this additional overhead?
