Meelis Roos reports a regression since 3.5-rc5 that stops Sun Fire V100 and Sun Netra X1 sparc64 machines from booting, hanging after enabling serial console. He bisected it to commit 107a84e61cdd. Rob Herring explains: "The problem is match combinations of compatible plus name and/or type fail to match correctly. I have a fix for this, but given how late it is for 3.5 I think it is best to revert this for now. There could be other cases that rely on the current although wrong behavior. I will post an updated version for 3.6."
