Thanks a lot for testing!

Ok

Just to be sure: this is not a regression from my patches either,
right? I would expect that any EV6 (or later) target specific
kernel didn't change much at all from my patches, while the
generic kernel changing from -march=ev4 to -march=ev56 is
certainly meant to be different (in a good way, with smaller
size and faster execution).
