So this patch just allows the boot to continue where it previously was not
able to continue.  The config has KCOV and FUNCTION_TRACER/STACK_TRACER
enabled which causes issues with the early boot code in mm/mem_encrypt.c.

If there is an issue that is being hidden by these config options, then
performing a bisect without those settings may help identify the real
issue.

Thanks,
Tom
