I can confirm that this series makes my J2 Turtle Board boot again!

Yep, it just got stuck for me right after these messages at my first boot attempt:

clocksource: jiffies: mask: 0xffffffff max_cycles: 0xffffffff, max_idle_ns: 7645041785100000 ns
futex hash table entries: 512 (order: 1, 8192 bytes, linear)
NET: Registered PF_NETLINK/PF_ROUTE protocol family
clocksource: Switched to clocksource jcore_pit_cs

It boots past these messages on second attempt, although it's now stuck trying to start
/init. However, it's still echoing <RETURN> strokes, so it might be an issue with Toybox.
