From a7cefd9a5c3b2a9d5e7af8ba3ac60a751b86ad03 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Walleij Date: Wed, 28 Jan 2026 01:31:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ixp4xx: select CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP The ixp4xx is using split squashfs/jffs2 root filesystems on some devices, so without CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP the device does not gain a writeable root filesystem with these boot messages: mount_root: unable to create loop device mount_root: jffs2 not ready yet, using temporary tmpfs overlay and then it never gets out of that. Fix this so we get writeable rootfs again.
