Hi Vladimir,

After,

72cd4064fcca "NOMMU: Toggle only bits in EXC_RETURN we are really care of",

the no-MMU Vybrid Cortex-M4 is not booting, relevant logs at the end.

Looks like any Cortex-M with XIP enabled Kernel would have this issue,
i.e. all STM32 Cortex-M baords (STM32 maintainers CC'ed) as well as.

In the above commit, lr value is saved in data section in __v7m_setup,
but the data section is setup only later in __mmap_switched on an XIP
kernel, where it will overwrite the saved value of lr. This causes
reserved EXC_RETURN value resulting in the below.

Reverting the above change fixes the issue.

Regards
afzal
