I do not believe this is Nick's problem. I encountered the same issue and
the bisect ended up here;

# BISECT HERE
mm-variable-length-argument-support.patch
mm-variable-length-argument-support-fix.patch
# BISECT BAD

Reverting those two patches boots ok on my standalone x86 laptop. Patch authors
cc'd. I have not read the patches yet to see what might be the problem.
