Thanks for sharing the info.

I managed to work your rootfs with my local arm build
based on the problematic git tip.
However, I couldn't suceed to reproduce it.

I needed to build zsmalloc/zram built-in instead of modules
Is it related? Hmm,

Yeah, It would be very helpful if you could help to bisect it.
Thanks!
