FYI: Mainline 3.16 kernel does support device tree for QNAP. So it
should be possible to boot using it.

My gut feeling is that DT is not part of the problem. So if you cannot
quickly find a way to force DT booting, can i suggest you binary chop
kernel versions between what does work and what does not, independent
of if it used DT or not.

Thanks
