Nope, that didn't work.
I have tried 2 different patches :
- in [1], your proposed solution
- in [2], a PrefetchFlush as adviced by ARM Architecture Reference Manual

None of them worked. I confirmed by disassembling __dabt_svc my changes hit the
abort routine, and they did. I'll continue next week by trying to have a closer
look at the SW_DOMAIN_PAN commit (a5e090acbf545), and take time to walk through
the whole Oops for information I have missed.

Cheers.
