With the hard SPI hang now resolved, the D16 has full debug logging
enabled, which has allowed the race condition causing these spurious
test failures to become apparent.  In the log it appears that during
multicore startup in ramstage something causes a deadlock condition; my
initial suspects would be the console spinlock or one of the NVRAM
spinlocks.  Suggestions as to other potential causes (e.g. if something
like this has happened on other boards) is always welcome!
