The above two methods can fix the problem. Here are my test results.
The VisionFive board can boot up successfully if and only if all above
two applied.
The VisionFive 2 board can boot up successfully if I merge Linus's new
changes.

Hope your fix will be merged in rc2. Thank you for your reply.

Best regards,
Hal
