Okay, I've added displaying a list of deferred devices when mounting 
rootfs fails and got following items:

Deferred devices:
18000000.ethernet        platform: probe deferral - supplier 
bus@...0000:motherboard-bus not ready
1c050000.mmci    amba: probe deferral - supplier 
bus@...0000:motherboard-bus not ready
1c1d0000.gpio    amba: probe deferral - supplier 
bus@...0000:motherboard-bus not ready
2b600000.iommu   platform: probe deferral - wait for supplier 
scpi-power-domains
7ff50000.hdlcd   platform: probe deferral - wait for supplier scpi-clk
7ff60000.hdlcd   platform: probe deferral - wait for supplier scpi-clk
1c060000.kmi     amba: probe deferral - supplier 
bus@...0000:motherboard-bus not ready
1c070000.kmi     amba: probe deferral - supplier 
bus@...0000:motherboard-bus not ready
1c170000.rtc     amba: probe deferral - supplier 
bus@...0000:motherboard-bus not ready
1c0f0000.wdt     amba: probe deferral - supplier 
bus@...0000:motherboard-bus not ready
gpio-keys
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 
unknown-block(0,0)

I don't see the 'bus@...0000:motherboard-bus' on the deferred devices 
list, so it looks that device core added a link to something that is not 
a platform device...

Best regards
