Are you sure you bisected right? Based on what's in that commit, it *does* appear something went wrong with bisection. If the implicated commit is the next one in time sequence relative to # good: [2f1f53bdc6531696934f6ee7bbdfa2ab4f4f62a3] CRISv10 fasttimer: Scrap INLINE and name timeval_cmp better then the test of whether I bisected correctly is as simple as applying the commit and seeing if things break, because I'm running on the kernel corresponding to 2f1f53bdc6531696934f6ee7bbdfa2ab4f4f62a3 right now. Let me give that a try and I'll report back. Worst case, I'll have to start over and write off the past four days...
