Nice thanks guys! I always use the latest opensbi and not the one that
is embedded in qemu, which is the only difference between your command
line (which works) and mine (which does not work). So the issue is
probably there, I really need to investigate that now.

That means I only need to fix KASAN_INLINE and we're good.

I imagine Palmer can add your Tested-by on the series then?

Thanks again!
