Is this mainline 3.4.113, or LPC version?

Mainline, afaik there is no newer version of the lpc kernel and the lpc driver are upstream since 3.4 (hence the 3.4.113 kernel version we tried).

How much work is involved in testing a newer kernel. You are not going to get too much help from the community with such an old kernel. If you can reproduce it with a modern day kernel, then people are more likely to help.

We haven't tried any newer version, because DTS is mandatory since 3.5 afaik? We hadn't the time to look into, although it looks pretty straight forward.

LR == 0 is suspicious. It should contain the return address, inet_recvmsg+0x38/0x4c. That is assuming the calling convention is the same for this old kernel as todays kernels on ARM.

I will do a little debugging why LR is 0 here. Maybe that's the clue.

Could you produce net/ipv4/udp.lst for this exact kernel build?

Sure: https://gist.github.com/hellow554/6b11c6c0827d5db80a7e66f71f5636ff#file-net_uipv4_udp-lst

Any idea how you could get file:line information ?
( like : udp_setsockopt+0x62/0xa0 net/ipv4/udp.c:2502 )

Many thanks for the answer, I hope I could answer your questions.
