Unfortunately dmesg and kern.log are flooded with messages like:

and boot takes a very long time due to logging all these messages. I
suppose that's a side-effect of using the kurobox-pro dtb - guessing
it has a different flash layout?
Looks like that was the case. I applied your patch to
orion5x-linkstation-lsgl.dts, rebuilt the dtb, dropped it into
/etc/flash-kernel/dtbs, and ran flash-kernel again. Much better:
