This is a known problem for the ELDK 5.0 release[1][2].

> For configuration, I was using 85xx/tqm8548_defconfig file.

You should note that the 8548 does not have a regular floating point but
an SPEv2 unit.  This is currently not supported by ELDK 5.0 or 5.1.  The
latest usable release ist ELDK 4.2 using ppc_85xxDP-.

On the other hand we're working on support for this so expect an update
on this soon.

Cheers
  Detlev

90% of the in kernel users of yield() are either a bug or a design problem or
lack of understanding or all of those.                     -- Thomas Gleixner
