The nVHE percpu data is partially linked but the nVHE linker script did
not align the percpu section. The PERCPU_INPUT macro would then align
the data to a page boundary:
#define PERCPU_INPUT(cacheline) \
__per_cpu_start = .; \
*(.data..percpu..first) \
. = ALIGN(PAGE_SIZE); \
*(.data..percpu..page_aligned) \
. = ALIGN(cacheline); \
*(.data..percpu..read_mostly) \
. = ALIGN(cacheline); \
*(.data..percpu) \
*(.data..percpu..shared_aligned) \
PERCPU_DECRYPTED_SECTION \
__per_cpu_end = .;
but then when the final vmlinux linking happens the hypervisor percpu
data is included after page alignment and so the offsets potentially
don't match. On my build I saw that the .hyp.data..percpu section was
at address 0x20 and then the percpu data would begin at 0x1000 (because
of the page alignment in PERCPU_INPUT), but when linked into vmlinux,
everything would be shifted down by 0x20 bytes.
This manifests as one of the CPUs getting lost when running
kvm-unit-tests or starting any VM and subsequent soft lockup on a Cortex
A72 device.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
