This patch seems to cause trouble, at least on the Kontron board where I
tested recent trunk, but probably on other systems also I'd guess.

r4393 works fine, r4394 is the first broken revision.

What I see is a module not loading correctly (r8169), and a hard hang
later in the boot process (after blacklisting the r8169 module). It
seems the hang is caused by intel_agp or agpgart, not sure.

Attached is a log from the Kontron board using both r4393 and r4394.
The diff shows quite a lot of resource allocation changes, not sure
which of those is relevant and is causing the problems.
