Sure, something else may be failing, but why does reverting your patch
fix the problem ?

Anyway, complete logs are at http://kerneltests.org/builders.

http://kerneltests.org/builders/qemu-arm-next/builds/376/steps/qemubuildcommand/logs/stdio

is the most recent log (next-20120215). Look for the vexpress crashes; the overo
crash bisected to to 'PM / OPP: Disable OPPs that aren't supported by the regulator',
in next-20160212, which I have not fully analyzed yet, and the beagle crashes
as well as the 'new' overo crash are brand new.
