Subject: v3.4 boot failure on qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb

Hi,

I found linux-3.4 kernel fails to mount the rootfs on "qemu-system-arm -M versatile."

Git bisect shows commit c334bc1 cause this first.

So I tried to revert it by putting arch/arm/mach-versatile/include/mach/io.h and adding select NEED_MACH_IO_H in the section of ARCH_VERSATILE in arch/arm/Kconfig, then the kernel can mount the rootfs.

Can someone confirm and fix this?

What config are you using, and what is your kernel command line?
