Thanks for verifying/reporting.

Shreeya mentioned upthread that `qemu_arm-virt-gicv3-uefi` was
failing, so I assume others should be able to repro in qemu. I'd guess
that LAVA lets you have VMs adjacent to physical hardware.  Having the
qemu command line, kernel config, and perhaps the initramfs are going
to be the three most useful things for any similar bug report.
