It was a runtime issue, panic of init.
Not sure which commit fixed it. I think 
it was a qemu specific problem, that means it might have worked on real hardware with older kernels.

Or nobody ever tested musl or1k on real hardware 😳.
I know that Rich only tested the musl port with qemu-user, not with qemu-system.
