Presumably not on an arm64 board though. This is happening in the
memcpy done somewhere in fbcon, when doing an OUT_RINGp if the
backtrace is to be believed. This means that the fifo is somehow not
writable, or not set, or ... something. Also note that it's a G73 (aka
pre-G80), so very different paths being taken through the driver.
