The MMC partition device nodes are not yet present in /dev when preinit runs as PID 1 — devtmpfs is auto-mounted by the kernel but secondary partition nodes (mmcblk0p10) may lag behind. This causes the ext4 mount of /data to fail silently, skipping the /etc overlay setup entirely. Fix by: 1. Explicitly mounting devtmpfs on /dev at preinit start 2. Polling up to 2s for the data partition block device to appear Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> (cherry picked from commit 4548bad)
I noticed this error in dmesg from the panel-simple driver:
```
[ 1.066237] panel-simple panel: Expected bpc in {6,8} but got: 0
```
We are now setting `bus-format` in our device tree, so we should be
handle the format we sett correctly. This fixes so parts of the TCON
peripheral not being initialised.
