Unfortunately, crazy as this sounds, this is causing mips problems on

when this patch is included:

https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/60/builds/1612 
https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/102/builds/315 
https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/74/builds/1616

Cheers,
