Partial dmesg is at:
https://github.com/pavelmachek/missy/blob/master/db/phone/nokia/n900/pavel/2018.1291171648263/dmesg.out

I should be able to get full one...

I did git bisect, and the winner seems to be:

pavel at duo:/data/l/linux-n900$ git bisect bad
c85823390215e52d68d3826df92a447ed31e5c80 is the first bad commit
commit c85823390215e52d68d3826df92a447ed31e5c80

    gpio: of: Support SPI nonstandard GPIO properties

    Before it was clearly established that all GPIO properties in the
        device tree shall be named "foo-gpios" (with the deprecated
        variant
	    "foo-gpio" for single lines) we unfortunately merged a few
        bindings
	    which named the lines "gpio-foo" instead.

    This is most prominent in the GPIO SPI driver in Linux which names
        the lines "gpio-sck", "gpio-mosi" and "gpio-miso".

    As we want to switch the GPIO SPI driver to using descriptors, we
        need devm_gpiod_get() to return something reasonable when
        looking
	    up these in the device tree.

    Put in a special #ifdef:ed kludge to do this special lookup only
        for the SPI case and gets compiled out if we're not enabling
        SPI.
	    If we have more oddly defined legacy GPIOs like this, they
        can be
	    handled in a similar manner.

Unfortunately, it does not seem to revert cleanly on my v4.16 branch.
