Sorry, I'm not very good with planning and coordination. I just
try my best to keep this working.

I guess ideally we should use Bugzilla to track regressions
like this, but it also comes with a bit of overhead so I don't
know if it helps more than trying to keep things in the head.

The first one I guess, the second is mostly about supporting
-EPROBE_DEFER for different use cases.

Sorry but I need some background here, I have no idea what
festival is, other than it seems to be some kind of userspace
test program?

Does it mean that mainline is working find for you or
do we need to look deeper into the problem in the OF
lookup?
