I am booting latest LEG kernel from UEFI that has ACPI tables for ARMv8 core. ACPI tables are parsed but kernel stops at a certain point in the boot cycle and I am not sure where and why.
In particular, this statement seems odd because it should not be looking for device tree at all.
Kernel console output pasted below. Any help would be appreciated.
