I can confirm this on the Lamobo R1, when rootfs is on scsi0 and it first attempts to boot from microSD (failing to find boot_efi on mmc0). If I force it to boot from scsi0 first by interrupting the boot to get to a u-boot shell, and typing "setenv boot_targets scsi0", it worked fine with 2021.01 (e.g. it didn't hit the bootefi codepath) as well. Booting the debian-installer image from https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/armhf/20210416-00:15/netboot/SD-card-images/ worked for me (which currently uses 2021.01). That said, I'm not sure if this is the same issue as in the original report, as the symptom stuck at "Starting kernel ..." can be caused by a wide variety of issues... live well, vagrant
