    Running latest development branch on my bpi-r1 my system for the
    past few weeks and find that the system is crashing about every 36
    hours.  It seems that it crashed when its under a little CPU load or
    multiple processes are actually doing work.  I run e2guargian and
    squid on my router. When this crash happens it seems that cpu load
    is still low 10 - 20% range.  <br>
    I just switched to this branch vs the 17.01x series about 2 weeks
    ago in an effort to help test the new version before it is
    released.  At that time the B53 switch drivers were not being
    loaded, seems some difference in the 4.9 and 4.14 versions of the
    kernel.  This patch was created and fixed the switch issue.<br>
