I'll look into why things are crashing in the RPM routines, but the
root-cause of your issue is that your system doesn't provide any CMA
memory ("0K cma-reserved" in the log above). This is required for
etnaviv to work, any working configuration without CMA memory is pure
luck. You will need to tweak your configuration to always have some CMA
memory, looking at the imx_v6_v7_defconfig should provide a good
starting point.
