For me it always crashes during the 37th call of synchronize_sched() in
setup_kmem_cache_node(), which is the first call after secondary CPU bring up.
With your and my debug code, I get:
CPU: Testing write buffer coherency: ok
CPU0: thread -1, cpu 0, socket 0, mpidr 80000000
Setting up static identity map for 0x40100000 - 0x40100058
cnt = 36, sync
CPU1: thread -1, cpu 1, socket 0, mpidr 80000001
Brought up 2 CPUs
SMP: Total of 2 processors activated (2132.00 BogoMIPS).
CPU: All CPU(s) started in SVC mode.

I hope it helps. Thanks!
