Ok, progress!

What is your qemu command line? I see that z2 has no pcmcia device, so
I tried booting
from MMC, but this already fails with 5.18-rc1 without any of my
patches, giving me

[    0.697481] Creating 3 MTD partitions on "physmap-flash":

Do  you have MMC or some other rootfs working without my patch series?
