branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/2021.05.x
When grub2 (i386-pc) is built with -O2 or -O3 it is unable to boot
and the system will reboot in a loop.
Tony Battersby has bisected [0] the error down to this security bugfix:
boot/grub2/0132-kern-parser-Fix-a-stack-buffer-overflow.patch
There is also a bug report by Peter Seiderer about this [1].
As discussed on the mailing list [2], this patch introduces a workaround
in the grub2.mk overriding the global optimization settings with -Os
which results in a booting system.
