Just fyi: On the ALKML there are IPU patches from Sascha Hauer for the 
kernel. Applying Sascha's patches to the kernel and this patch to U-Boot 
makes the kernel crash with a NULL pointer [1].

I haven't looked into the details, wild guessing is that the U-Boot 
patch enables some interrupts the IPU driver isn't ready to handle 
before he's done his own initialization.

Note that this is only fyi.

Best regards

Dirk
