Wow, this is quite impressive! You must be one of the first that have this in a real distribution for ARM :)
I think ChromiumOS is using flattened trees, but we're also running Open Firmware and have it stay resident to be called into.

minutes-long hangs should be gone for real now.
Do you have any references like a git-commit or discussion on a mailinglist for this? I'd like to match this with some other ARM hardware (non/OLPC) issues I have seen.
There's a description of our problem at:

Thanks,
