This last paste looks remarkably similar to an issue currently seen on
the Radxa ROCK Pi 4B (RK3399) during power-up after a soft reboot
(`sudo reboot`) is issued.  We're presently running v5.15.35 [0].

It's not clear how this issue (present 3 years ago) was finally
resolved.  From the thread, it looks as if the fix might have made its
way into ATF, but I'm 87.6% sure ATF is not running on this platform
(yet).

Note that the u-boot we're using is also quite old:

  U-Boot 2019.10-09248-g8511c75bb4 (Jan 08 2020 - 17:13:03 -0800)

... so this could easily be the root cause.  The current plan is to
try to update this ASAP.  However early attempts are yet to result in
a successful boot.

I see that Brian recently added a few patches related to PD/DVFS, but
again, these appear to be ATF related.

Would anyone be able to shed some light onto this for me please?

As always, any help would be gratefully received.

Kind regards,
Lee
