Hi Kalesh, sorry there're some irrelevant issues mixed in the report,
kindly ignore them. And the valuable ones are the new ones that
prefixed by >>, as the below one in original report.

>> arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/nvhe/switch.c:372:17: warning: no previous prototype for function 'hyp_panic_bad_stack' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
   void __noreturn hyp_panic_bad_stack(void)
                   ^
