This bug is awaiting verification that the linux-azure/6.2.0-1009.9
kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and
update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the
tag 'verification-needed-lunar' to 'verification-done-lunar'. If the
problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-lunar' to
'verification-failed-lunar'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Title:
  lunar/linux 6.2 fails to boot on arm64

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in linux source package in Lunar:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  On certain bare metal arm64 boards the latest lunar/linux
  6.2.0-17-generic fails to boot, the kernel gets stuck reporting the
  following oops:

  [   72.043484] rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks:
  [   72.049571] rcu:     22-...0: (30 GPs behind) 
idle=b10c/1/0x4000000000000000 softirq=164/164 fqs=6443
  [   72.058520]     (detected by 28, t=15005 jiffies, g=449, q=174 ncpus=32)
  [   72.064949] Task dump for CPU 22:
  [   72.068251] task:kworker/u64:5   state:R  running task     stack:0     
pid:447   ppid:2      flags:0x0000000a
  [   72.078156] Workqueue: efi_rts_wq efi_call_rts
  [   72.082595] Call trace:
  [   72.085029]  __switch_to+0xbc/0x100

  The bug doesn't seem to happen on arm64 virtual machines, it happens
  only on physical arm64 systems.

  This regression has been introduced by:

  e7b813b32a42 ("efi: random: refresh non-volatile random seed when RNG
  is initialized")

  [Test case]

  Boot the kernel on a physical arm64 board (i.e., kuzzle in our lab).

  [Fix]

  Revert commit e7b813b32a42 for now, at the same time address this
  issue upstream in order to find a proper fix.

  [Regression potential]

  We may want to address this upstream to find a proper fix. Reverting
  the commit restores the previous behavior, but we also lose the
  capability of having a better RNG on the affected arm64 hardware.
