It seems only partially fixed...

With 4.13.4-1 it usually detects the USB device, but I've gotten several
boots where it kernel panics on mounting swap (an lvm volume on the USB
device) or sometimes on unmounting swap as part of powerdown or
reboot. Not really any better luck with 4.14~rc3-1~exp1.

Both versions seem slightly more reliable in a warm boot vs. a cold
boot, or if usb is started from u-boot, but I've still seen kernel
panics even then. Setting rootdelay=30 seems to help, but not every
time. Sounds a bit racy...

The patched .dtb I was running with 4.9.30-2+deb9u5 and another with
4.13.2-1~exp1 both had an uptime of 8 days and counting. Oddly, dtdiff
cannot tell the difference between the patched 4.13.2-1~exp1 dtb and the
dtb shipped with 4.13.4-1, though the checksums do differ.

Hrm.
