How about:

| In commit:
|
|   114945d84a30a5fe ("arm64: Fix labels in el2_setup macros")
|
| We renamed a label from '1' to '.Lskip_gicv3_\@', but failed to update
| a branch to it, which now targets a later label also called '1'.
|
| The branch is taken rarely, when GICv3 is present but SRE is disabled
| at EL3, causing a boot-time crash.
|
| Update the caller to the new label name.

... since that makes it clear that this is the right fix.
