The mainline kernel v6.10-rc6 boot failed across all arm64 devices and
qemu-arm64 and no crash log found (earlycon) did not help.

But the defconfig builds boot PASS.

The boot problem is with defconfig + Extra Kconfigs and builds links
provided in the bottom of this email.

The boot test history shows that,
GOOD: v6.10-rc5
BAD: v6.10-rc6

We are bisecting this issue and get back to you with git bisect results.

Reported-by: Linux Kernel Functional Testing <lkft@xxxxxxxxxx>

Following is the list of build combinations that boot failed.
Regressions found on qemu-arm64, Juno-r2, db410c, db845c, e850-96 and Rock-pi-4.
