while it's technically possible to make wandboard work with a saucy kernel, that takes ~40 patches.
On the other hand, T already have enough bits to make that board boots and work fine as a server: for theese reasons, i'm marking this as "won't fix' in S, and propose it for T.

Title:
  Kernel hangs on wandboard (freescale imx6)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've been trying to use the generic kernel with my wandboard (based on
  a freescale imx6) as it's supposed to be working properly.

  Using the Ubuntu generic kernel, I usually get a successful boot very shortly followed by a hang.
  The hang is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6216221
  That's when using: vmlinuz-3.11.0-12-generic
  dmesg for that kernel: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6216265/

  
  Then I noticed that fedora's 3.11 kernel appears to work fine for me and is reasonably stable (though it lacks aufs and overlayfs which I kind of need since I use the board as a buildd).
  The fedora kernel I'm using is: vmlinuz-3.11.0-armv7-x13
  dmesg for that kernel: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6216246/

  A config diff between the two gives me:
  http://paste.ubuntu.com/6216233/

  I believe the git branch for the fedora kernel is at:
  http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/kernel.git
