I tested the posted patch, applying it on top of 3.17-rc2 did solve my boot problems. Just to make sure I also tried a clean 3.17-rc3, which was unable to boot. With this patch applied, it again booted successfully.

I'm not quite sure how tags work, but you may add my following tags:

Thank you all for the quick responses and the patch, nice work! :)
