The arm64 kernel doesn't boot with annotated branches (PROFILE_ANNOTATED_BRANCHES) enabled and CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL together. Bisecting it, I found that disabling branch profiling in arch/arm64/mm solved the problem. Narrowing down a bit further, I found that physaddr.c is the file that needs to have branch profiling disabled to get the machine to boot. I suspect that it might invoke some ftrace helper very early in the boot process and ftrace is still not enabled(!?). Rather than playing whack-a-mole with individual files, disable branch profiling for the entire arch/arm64 tree, similar to what x86 already does in arch/x86/Kbuild.
