I have now tried with the latest kernel from linux-mips.org: 2.6.23-rc3
and got the same error:

exception PC 0x80228edc, exception RA 0x804e8f74
arg: 81070000 0 8050d3b8 1

ffffffff80228ea4 T __bzero
ffffffff80228f04 t memset_partial

ffffffff804e8eb0 t init_bootmem_core
ffffffff804e8f90 t $L99

I will contact the linux-mips list.

Bye,
