+Subject: [PATCH] arm64: don't issue HVC on boot
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Broadcom's CFE loader seems to miss setting SCR_EL3.HCE which results in
+generating an UNDEF and kernel panic on the first HVC.
+
+HVC gets issued by kernels 5.12+ while booting, by kexec and KVM. Until
+someone finds a workaround we have to avoid all above.
