Any idea why? I don't have relevant stuff with to test this.

I don't know why. It failed to boot linux-sunxi 3.4.104 kernel on A20
OLinuXino-MICRO after updating from 2018.07 to 2018.09-rc1 and would hang
at "Starting kernel...".

I bisected the issue to:
https://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=commit;h=d32e86bde8a31a49cf4a9b233ad91ecdfc96ba2a

No problems booting mainline kernel.

Thanks.

Regards,
Jonathan

Can you update full details of bug on the commit message.

Technically I think the right thing to do would be disabling
ARMV7_VIRT as my understanding is that booting into HYP mode doesn't
work without LPAE support.

Some days ago I tried to disable HYP mode for SVC mode.
But with SVC the PSCI is not loading (u-boot bug?), and without PSCI
only the 1st core of the CPU gets used. I had documented the case here:
