Hmm good question, it fails a bit later on during the boot just
before __enable_mmu.

But I just tried commenting out the setting of bit 11:

@orrlt	r10, r10, #1 << 11              @ set bit #11

And just trying to write the unmodified diagnostic register
also makes it fail.

So yeah it seems to be related to the secure crap instead :(

Regards,

Tony
