I am trying to use an LCD connected via SPI on an Orange Pi zero board.
It works, for a while, then crashes.

armbian forum thread here:

The LCD initially works, but fbtft stops updating the LCD framebuffer
after a few mins use. The more frequent the framebuffer updates the
faster it is to lockup. 

In this case advmame is running pacman, works for <2mins.  advmame is
built from source on the ARM board itself.  This source and the LCD
module itself work without issues on Raspberry Pi boards.

dmesg shows the following:

I am not a linux kernel hacker, just posting here to draw attention to
it :-) 

Thanks,
