Very well spotted Philippe. Indeed that is strange and is probably also why we are getting these issues.

I've tried your suggestion and indeed for the NetBSD 9.0 test, reverting 6d2d4069c47 resolves the error for NetBSD 9.0.
But the armbian tests fail with this output:

 (4/6) tests/acceptance/boot_linux_console.py:BootLinuxConsole.test_arm_orangepi_bionic_19_11: /console: DRAM: 1024 MiB

INTERRUPTED: Test interrupted by SIGTERM\nRunner error occurred: Timeout reached\nOriginal status: ERROR\n

The 'setenv extraargs' isn't done when 'Autoboot in' appears, which is why there is much less output from the kernel.
And it looks like that is because 'U-Boot SPL' isn't printed in the output so the python test is still waiting for that.

However with the new patch submitted by Bin just now on the list, all tests are passing again like before, including the new 20.08 armbian test:

(I'll reply to that message shortly)

Now I remember, I hit the similar problem 2 years ago :S

See the description of the C_SIZE field in CSD register:

   "To indicate 2 GByte card, BLOCK_LEN shall be 1024 bytes."

This model uses a fixed BLOCK_LEN = 512 bytes.
