All mips builds hang during boot. Bisect points to commit 9b99d86800f ("kthread:
Fix use-after-free if kthread fork fails"). The problem was also seen upstream,
and has been fixed with commit b0f5a8f32e ("kthread: fix boot hang (regression)
on MIPS/OpenRISC"). The problem is gone after this patch is applied.
