Public bug reported:
The backport of upstream stable commit 05412471beba "bpf: Take return
from set_memory_ro() into account with bpf_prog_lock_ro()" (linux-6.9.y)
for xenial breaks the boot on arm64 machines in security cycle
s2025.01.13. Note that the backport for bionic that was submitted
together with the xenial version to fix CVE-2024-42068 seems to be fine.
The kernel will hang during or after the EFI stub runs:
BdsDxe: starting Boot0002 "UEFI Misc Device 2" from
PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1,0x3)/Pci(0x0,0x0)
error: no suitable video mode found.
