Hi,
i tried to boot 4.7.0-rc1-next-20160602 with bcm2835_defconfig on a Raspberry Pi B.
Unfortunately it crashes with a NULL pointer dereference and many oops following: ...

Figure out where in drm_gem_cma_create() you are?
It was the first call in the error path. I attached a patch which fixed the NULL pointer dereference for me. But i think it's not a proper one and seems to be related to 50cbc132460d ("drm: Use the driver's gem_object_free function from CMA helpers.")
-next kernels have been working for me on Pi 2s and 3s, and jumping to a NULL seems surprising for that function.
Sure they have enough memory but my Pi 1 has only 256 RAM. I didn't expect VC4 to work, but not a crash ;-)
