Ao,

Thx!

Indeed patch helps with boot freeze.
I started to see on monitor - with correct resolution - 4 tuxes in upper left 
corner :-)

Now i'm getting user space oops like this: 

https://gist.github.com/warpme/b8b757bc1444be8a137849301698ee4b

i'm pretty sure it is related to lack of (or issue with) console at kernel 
early init in user space.

As kernel with s4 hdmi code works for you - but traps for me - i think there is 
still issue with s4 hdmi code.
I suspect it is because diff between: my kernel config and yours.
(so it is exposing existing hidden issue)

btw: I'm not surprised by this as my kernel config is multi-soc (common for 
bcm25xx/27xx/s905/s912/g12/sm1/s4/h6/h616/a523/h700/rk33xx/rk35xx/qcs6490)
Usually kernel configs done for single soc (probably config you are using to 
test s4 hdmi code) are not exposing hidden issues exposed by multi-soc config 
(like mine config). 
I deal with such issues multiple times in past.

multi-soc config i'm using is like this: 
https://github.com/warpme/minimyth2/blob/master/script/kernel/linux-6.18/files/linux-6.18-arm64-armv8.config

May you pls try to compile your s4 hdmi code with above config?
I'm quite sure it will expose to you issue i'm getting....
