Not sure whether this is related but I too failed to boot on Banana Pi M1+ after updating to kernel 4.8.4. But this was because my boot.cmd was still pointing to the old dtb. After pointing it to sun7i-a20-bananapi-m1-plus.dtb and creating boot.scr, it manages to boot up but my usb device was not detected. lsusb gave the following error lsusb unable to initialize libusb: -99 Instinctively, i downloaded sun7i-a20-sinovoip-bpi-m1-plus.dtb from kernel 4.7.3 build, place it in /boot/dtb, pointed my boot.cmd to it, create boot.scr and my usb devices were detected again.
