Pi2 Model B v1.2 kernel issues

The new Pi2 B v1.2 uses a new chip that functions differently from Pi2 B v1.1. I wish we were told this before ordering more Pi's. We are using custom kernel in our current products with Pi2 B v1.1 and cannot just upgrade to the latest kernel/firmware. Can you point me to documentation on how to change the kernel 3.18.14 to use the Pi2 B v1.2 hardware? If that is not possible, where can I buy Pi2 B v1.1?

Could you be more specific as to what no longer works. The description of the problem, "functions differently" is way too broad to make any kind of
recommendations on if or how it can be fixed.

With the v1.2 new chip, the SD card doesn't boot 95% of the time, and when it does boot, only 1 CPU of the BCM2837 comes up. This SD card works fine on the old BCM2836 chip.
