Frieder,

This patch doesn't resolve the issue either. Let me know if there is
some quick debugging you want to add somewhere. I don't have a lot of
time to troubleshoot this week as I'm trying to wrap up some work
before a 2-week vacation but it's quick for me to apply patches and do
a quick boot test.

best regards,

Tim
