Reverting this commit on the top of today's linux-next fixed an issue that
Thunder X2 is unable to boot:

.config: https://gitlab.com/cailca/linux-mm/-/blob/master/arm64.config

EFI stub: Booting Linux Kernel...
EFI stub: EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL unavailable, KASLR will be disabled
EFI stub: Using DTB from configuration table
EFI stub: Exiting boot services and installing virtual address map...

It hangs here for more than 10 minutes even with "earlycon" before I gave up.
The reverting makes it boot again following by those lines almost immediately.
